3. Spread Nutella over the puff pastry with a tablespoon or brush.

4. Place the other layer of puff pastry over the chocolate spread and flatten slightly with your hands.

5. Gently try to feel the outline of where the first puff pastry with your finger. You should also see the chocolate. Cut along the edges and remove the excess pastry.

6. Cutting pastry strips to form the branches, following the line of the trunk perpendicularly as you go.

7. Beginning at the base of the Christmas tree, twist the pastry away from you. You may need to clean your hands between each twist as the chocolate spread can get easily messy.
