Nutella Swirl Roll with Pecan Praline Glaze

My last two posts were about pumpkins and pumpkin recipes so even though it is fall, I thought I would switch it up. So, we are talking some of the best breakfast treats around…. Nutella Swirl Rolls with Pecan Praline Glaze. Oh. My. Goodness. These are soooo good. And soooo decadent. Perfect as a special treat for your family, or when guests start coming into town. When I was making these I was just drooling in anticipation, they are so delicious! Nutella happens to be my favorite since I grew up on it every time I went to India. These definitely are a special treat. I started out by making a dough very similar to a cinnamon roll dough. Making it the night before and letting it rise for the next morning cuts out the working time in the morning.

OMG look at all that delicious Nutella

Once you pull the cinnamon rolls out of the oven, drizzle the glaze evenly over the rolls.
