There was a video on Facebook showing this Nutella Star Bread being made. My cousin Nydia posted it to my page and said "You Should Make This!". This weekend was cold and nowhere to go, so challenge ACCEPTED! I personally do not like Nutella but Joey and Milana love it.
So I got up and fed the kids and then made 3 things of dough as it was also a Friday, so it was pizza night for lent. Below is the link to the video and then I will explain step by step if you would rather read it.

Nutella Star Bread
1 ball of dough
Flour
Nutella
Eggs
Start by making the dough and letting it rise. When ready cut the dough into 4 segments. Take flour and sprinkle on the table or counter and then roll out each piece, take a plate and cut around the plate in a circle. Then do the same for each piece of dough. When done, place on parchment paper, or I put foil on a pizza pan,and sprayed it with non stick spray. Take some Nutella and put in a microwave safe bowl and heat up for 10 sec. to make it easier to spread. Take the first circle that is on the pan and spread out the Nutella, then put a second circle on and more Nutella, then 3rd more Nutella, and then 4th as the top. Then put a shot glass in the middle of the dough and cut into 4, and then cut 3 more lines gently inbetween each
"section". Then gently take two pieces and twist twice in the opposite direction and do that for the whole circle. Once done pinch the two twists together gently so that they close and make the flower petal standing up. Remove the shot glass and then add an egg bath to it. Bake on 350 for about 20-30 min until golden. I used the extra dough to make sfingi!
Joey was VERY surprised and one happy husband. I have to say, for my 1st try, I did pretty darn good!! I will make this for the holidays or to give people. My Italian Mother In Law was VERY impressed to say the least!
