{taste this} mini chocolate nutella popovers

If you are a long-timer here at shaken together, you might remember these mini chocolate nutella croissants that I made last year.  They were delicious and decadent.  And gone in two seconds ;)  Well, this past Saturday, the Bigger Bug's baseball team moved forward in their end of season tournament and we had to be at the fields at 8:15am!  So, I volunteered to bring a little something for breakfast.  And if you know me, I was SO not bringing fruit and yogurt, ha ha!

I put a little twist on the croissants and these mini chocolate nutella popovers were born!  This {taste this} recipe is my breakfast of champions!

When Cheryl over at Tidy Mom shared her garlic butter buns using refrigerated biscuits (which look amazing and are on my to-do list, too), I just knew I could use that same method to make something sweet!

mini chocolate nutella popovers
Yield:  24 bite-sized popovers or 8 large popovers
  • 1 can Pillsbury honey butter Grands refrigerated biscuits (8 biscuits)
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Nutella
Roll out each biscuit until it is about 1/4 inch thick and spread with nutella to the very edge.  Then sprinkle with mini chocolate chips.  Roll up each biscuit like a burrito and cut into three pieces.  Place each piece (with the spiral cut side facing up) into a compartment in a mini cupcake pan.  (To make 8 larger popovers, place all 3 cut pieces in one compartment of a regular sized cupcake pan.) 

Bake according to the package directions.  While the popovers were hot, I stirred together a little powdered sugar, milk and a smidge of vanilla to make a glaze to drizzle on these sweet little mouthfuls!


These bite-size popovers were incredibly easy and so, so tasty!  The melty chocolate and rich Nutella are perfectly complimented by the subtly sweet biscuits and somehow, the glaze just seemed right!  I used this same method to make cinnamon rolls and I'll share those this week, too! 

Don't be a stranger ... popover some time ;)
