Shaping

5. Knock back dough and tip out onto a lightly floured surface, do a quick hand knead and roll into a ball.

   With each ball at a time; flatten with your hand and roll out dough with a rolling pin, into a circle, to about 3-4mms thick. Place rolled out dough onto baking tray with baking paper, and spread Nutella to about 1cm from the edge.
   
   
   Repeat with 2 more pieces, placing each one on top of each other. Do not put Nutella on the top layer. Tip; if the Nutella is a bit hard to spread, place jar into a bowl with warm water or microwave some in a small bowl.
