Introduction: The Best Nutella and Lotus Rolls

Since I was little, I used to bake in my free time. For events, family, friends or even for myself.

Every time I was baking I felt like I am making an experiment and I've never wrote down my recipes.

One day, I was making Challah and i had leftovers of dough, so i decided to upgrade it and add Nutella chocolate and it was ended with something that looked like Rugelach.

After it vanished in an hour, I realize it is a successful experiment.

The second time I've made it, I tried to make them to be more in the shape of rolls.

This recipe is fairly easy to make, and in this Instructable I will demonstrate the whole process.

Hope you will enjoy it ! (:
