Curious to see how this turned out for anyone who has done it and what your thoughts are on the taste? I love Nutella but am just curious about mixing it with cream cheese. I'm not the most adventurous eater but I'm curious about it! Thanks!
We really enjoy it! People on Pinterest have commented that they like it as well. Someone even said they made it using puff pastry!
I am going to try this with puff pastry and low cal cream cheese.
Ohhhh!! I seriously want some of this right now! Thanks for sharing at my Go Nuts party!
