Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02 Step

2 mins
On a clean, dry work surface, gently unroll the thawed phyllo dough. Keep the stack covered with a slightly damp towel to prevent it from drying out. (2 minutes)
03 Step

3 mins
Place one sheet of phyllo dough on the work surface. Brush half of the sheet very lightly with melted butter. Fold the sheet in half to create a double layer. (3 minutes)
04 Step

5 mins
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of chocolate-hazelnut spread in a neat 1/2-inch wide strip, leaving a 1-inch border on the bottom and sides of the folded phyllo sheet. Be careful not to overfill. Spread butter evenly over remaining dough surface. (5 minutes)
05 Step

5 mins
Fold the sides of the phyllo dough inward over the ends of the chocolate layer to seal. Starting from the bottom edge (the edge closest to you), tightly roll the phyllo dough into a cigar shape. Place the cigar seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. (5 minutes)
06 Step

20 mins
Repeat steps 3-5 with the remaining phyllo dough, butter, and chocolate-hazelnut spread. Space the cigars evenly on the baking sheet. (20 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
10 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the phyllo dough is golden brown and crisp, approximately 8-12 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning. (10 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
10 mins
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature. (10 minutes)
For a richer flavor, consider using browned butter instead of melted butter.
Dust the finished cigars with powdered sugar or cocoa powder for an elegant presentation.
Add a sprinkle of chopped hazelnuts to the chocolate-hazelnut spread before rolling for extra crunch and nutty flavor.
These cigars are best enjoyed the same day they are made, as the phyllo dough can lose its crispness over time. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.

Apr 16, 2025I added a little sea salt on top before baking and it was the perfect sweet and salty combination!

Jun 4, 2024The phyllo dough dried out quickly on me, so make sure to keep it covered with a damp towel!
