2-Ingredient Braided Nutella Bread
Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Unwrap and roll dough onto a clean surface.
Seal perforated edges by gently pinching dough with your fingers.
To make spreading easier, microwave Nutella or chocolate spread for 40 seconds, mixing every 20 seconds.
Cover entire dough with the melted chocolate spread.
Position the dough landscape-wise and roll up the dough tightly. Seal the edges to make sure dough does not unroll.
Move rolled up dough to a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Leaving one centimeter at one end of the roll, use a sharp knife to cut lengthwise down the middle and completely through the other end.
Gently rotate each half of the dough away from the center so the inside of the roll is facing upwards. Bring one half over the other.
Bring the opposite half over the first half as closely as possible.
Repeat steps 7 and 8 until you run out of dough.
Seal by pinching the two ends together. Bake for 17 to 20 minutes.
Let braided bread cool for 20 minutes.
Finish by dusting powdered sugar on top before serving.
Enjoy (as if we had to tell you).
