Ladies (and gentlemen), let me introduce you to the most indulgent midnight snack that’ll make your taste buds dance – the Nutella-Stuffed Air-Fried Croissant Bombs. Trust me, this isn’t your regular midnight snack; it’s what dreams are made of!
Picture this: you’re up late watching your favorite show, and suddenly that sweet craving hits. Instead of reaching for those boring cookies, why not treat yourself to something that’ll make you feel like you’re dining at a 5-star hotel in Paris?
Here’s what you’ll need (I know you’re already excited!):
– 1 can of refrigerated croissant dough
– Nutella (because, duh!)
– Cream cheese, softened
– Powdered sugar
– Vanilla extract
– Sea salt (just a pinch, darling)
– Melted butter
– Cinnamon sugar for coating
Now, let me walk you through this heavenly creation (and yes, I’m literally drooling while writing this! 😋)
1. First, mix 4 oz of cream cheese with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth. This is our secret weapon!
1. Unroll those croissants (I know, I know, the pre-made ones – we’re being fancy but practical here, honey!)
1. Here’s where the magic happens: spread a layer of our cream cheese mixture, followed by a generous dollop of Nutella on each triangle. Don’t be shy with the Nutella – we’re not counting calories at midnight!
1. Roll these babies up, starting from the wide end. Make sure to seal the edges well – we don’t want any of that precious filling escaping!

1. Brush each roll with melted butter (because why not?) and coat them in cinnamon sugar. This step is non-negotiable!
1. Pop them in your air fryer at 350°F for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. If you don’t have an air fryer (girl, what are you waiting for?), you can bake them in the oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes.
The result? Crispy, gooey, chocolatey perfection that’ll make you forget about all your worries. The contrast between the flaky exterior and that warm, melted Nutella-cream cheese filling is simply _chef’s kiss_.
Pro tip: Want to take it to the next level? Drizzle some warm caramel sauce on top, or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. I won’t judge – what happens in the kitchen after midnight stays in the kitchen! 😉
This recipe makes 8 pieces, but let’s be real – you might want to make extra because these disappear FAST! Plus, they’re perfect for those impromptu late-night Netflix parties with your besties.
Can we talk about how amazing your kitchen will smell? It’s like a French bakery moved in next door!
