Ingredients You\u2019ll Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the dough:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 \u00be cup warm milk (about 110\u00b0F)
\u2013 2\u00bc teaspoons active dry yeast
\u2013 \u00bc cup granulated sugar
\u2013 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
\u2013 \u00bc cup unsalted butter, melted
\u2013 2\u00be cups all-purpose flour
\u2013 \u00bd teaspoon salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the filling:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 \u00bd cup Nutella (warmed slightly for easy spreading)
\u2013 \u2153 cup brown sugar
\u2013 2 teaspoons cinnamon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the chocolate drizzle:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 \u00bd cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
\u2013 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
\u2013 Optional: a pinch of sea salt for sprinkling<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make the Dough<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a large mixing bowl, stir together warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5\u201310 minutes until foamy. Add in the egg, yolk, and melted butter. Stir in flour and salt, and knead for about 8\u201310 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly sticky. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1\u20131\u00bd hours, or until doubled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roll, Fill, and Slice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 14×9-inch rectangle. Spread a thick, even layer of warmed Nutella over the surface. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roll the dough up tightly from the long side, then slice into 8\u201310 even rolls. Place in a greased baking dish and cover. Let rise for another 30\u201345 minutes, until puffed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake to Golden Gooeyness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Bake the rolls for 20\u201325 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the centers are cooked through. Let cool for about 10 minutes while you make the drizzle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finish with Chocolate Drizzle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt chocolate chips and cream together until smooth and pourable. Drizzle generously over the warm rolls. Add a sprinkle of flaky sea salt if you’re into that sweet-salty magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serving Ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Serve warm with a tall glass of milk, a bold cup of coffee, or straight off the baking dish with a fork. These are best fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge and gently reheated in the oven or microwave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pro Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Nutella spreads best when slightly warmed.<\/strong> Microwave for 10\u201315 seconds to make it smooth and spreadable.
\u2013 Want extra chocolate?<\/strong> Add mini chocolate chips inside the filling before rolling.
\u2013 Make it ahead:<\/strong> Assemble the night before, refrigerate, and bake in the morning.
\u2013 Freeze unfrosted rolls<\/strong> and drizzle fresh after reheating for bakery-level results anytime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
