Giant Dinosaur Eggs Filled With Nutella Recipes

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH NUTELLA

Steps:

• Prepare the outdoor barbecue to medium-high heat. If you do not have a barbecue, you can use an indoor grill pan set to medium high heat. Lightly oil the grill. Grill the pineapple slices until heated through and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes per side. It's important to leave the pineapples on the grill, untouched so that you can create the grill marks.
• While the pineapples are cooking, whisk the mascarpone and vanilla in a small bowl to blend. Set aside.
• Combine the chocolate-hazelnut spread and cream in a small bowl and stir to combine. Place in a microwave on high for about 2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds to blend well. Alternatively, you can combine the chocolate-hazelnut spread and cream in a small saucepan, set over low heat, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Heat until satiny smooth and easy to pour, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer the pineapple slices to a large platter. Drizzle the warm chocolate-hazelnut sauce over.
• Dollop the mascarpone mixture atop. Sprinkle with the hazelnuts and serve.

DAVID ROCCO'S ITALIAN NUTELLA-FILLED BOMBOLONI

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast with 1/3 cup of the milk in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with the remaining milk. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add the flour, sugar, salt and lemon zest, and mix together.
• Add the egg and milk mixture slowly to the flour, and mix until the dough is roughly combined, 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the yeast mixture, and continue to mix the dough for a few minutes. Add the butter to the dough a little at a time until mixed in. Sprinkle in a little flour if the dough is sticking to the bowl and mix until it no longer sticks to the sides. The dough should be very soft and not sticky. Transfer the dough onto a work surface and knead the dough into a ball, then put in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Proof the dough until doubled in size, 3 hours.
• Roll out the dough with a rolling pin until about 3/4-inch thick. Using a round pastry cutter the size of a cup, cut the dough into disks. Place the dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and cover with plastic wrap. Proof the dough for another 1 hour 30 minutes.
• In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about halfway. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 340 degrees F.
• Add the pieces of dough, a few at a time, to the hot oil. When the dough is golden on one side gently turn over to fry the other side, 3 to 5 minutes. When the doughnuts are golden remove from the fryer and place on paper towels to absorb the excess oil. Then roll the doughnuts in sugar until completely covered.
• Fill a pastry bag fitted with a pastry tip with the chocolate hazelnut spread. Poke the tip three-quarters into the doughnut and squeeze the bag, pulling the tip out and adding as much spread as possible to the doughnut. Serve warm.

DINOSAUR EGG

Steps:

• For the chicken: Slide plenty of herbs under the chicken skin. Put garlic in the cavity, along with any remaining herbs. Rub the chicken with pepper and olive oil.
• For the "Play Doh" crust: Mix the flour, egg whites and salt well, then add enough water to make a dough.
• Roll out 1/4 the dough to make a base for the chicken to sit on. Cook's Note: If it rips, it's probably because it needs a little more flour. Set the dough base on a baking sheet. Lay the chicken on it. Roll out the remaining dough, drape it over the chicken, and seal, hermetically. Cook's Note: No holes or rips allowed, so, if you must, make patches out of excess dough, stick them on, and seal.
• Add a splash of water to an egg yolk and paint the pastry case all over.
• Bake for 1 1/2 hours at 325 degrees F/160 degrees C. Let the bird sit out of the oven 10 minutes before serving. Cut off the crust and discard it. Carve the meat and serve. You'll be amazed at how the herb taste will have penetrated the meat!
