If there is one thing that makes a summer barbecue feel extra special, it is ending it with these Grilled Strawberry Nutella Croissants. This grilled dessert comes together in just three minutes and tastes like something you would order at a fancy brunch spot.
Buttery, flaky croissants straight off the grill, slathered with rich chocolate hazelnut spread, piled high with fresh strawberries, and finished with a cloud of whipped cream.
It started with those beautiful buttery croissants from Costco, a jar of our favorite hazelnut spread, and a carton of fresh strawberries, and somehow this magical combination was born.
And can we talk about Costco for a second? You walk in for croissants and walk out having spent three times your budget on dark chocolate blueberry quinoa crisps and things you absolutely did not need but cannot live without. Just us? Didn’t think so.
Ingredients For Grilled Strawberry Nutella Croissants
You only need five ingredients for these grilled Nutella croissants, and every single one of them pulls serious weight in this recipe.
- Croissants: The buttery, flaky base of this whole dessert. A good quality croissant makes all the difference here, so splurge on the bakery ones if you can.
- Salted Butter: A light smear on each half before grilling gives the croissant those gorgeous golden grill marks and an extra layer of rich, buttery flavor. Unsalted butter also works in a pinch.
- Chocolate Hazelnut Spread: The star of the show. Spread generously over the warm, grilled croissant so it melts into every flaky layer, for that dreamy, indulgent chocolate-hazelnut flavor.
- Strawberries: Fresh, juicy, and sliced thin for the perfect bright and fruity contrast to the rich chocolate spread. Use the ripest berries you can find.
- Whipped Cream (optional): The finishing touch. Light, airy, and the perfect cool contrast to the warm grilled croissant.
Five ingredients, three minutes, and one completely unforgettable dessert. You are welcome.
