- 1/4 cup Nutella, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Slice croissants: Using a serrated knife, slice the croissants in half horizontally but not all the way through, creating a book-like shape. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool and serve: Allow to cool before serving warm.
Notes
- The middle of the croissant will be undercooked to add a gooey texture.
- Experiment with different fillings like nuts, peanut butter, or candy bars.
- Edible cookie dough can be used for a safe alternative.
- Leftover cookie dough may vary depending on croissant size.
- Air fryer option: Cook in the air fryer at 350F for about 5 minutes.
