Instructions
  1. Mix together the sugar, yeast, water, coloring, butter, and oil. Let sit for about five minutes.
  2. Sift flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
  3. Add 1/2 cup of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Knead for about 10 minutes by hand.
  5. Put dough in a greased bowl and cover in a warm place- until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  7. Roll the dough into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface. {It should be about 1 foot by 1 1/2 feet or so (don't worry about being exact)}.
  8. Spread the Nutella.
  9. Slice the dough into strips (maybe about 1 inch wide or so).
  10. Roll the edges of each strip towards each other and then pinch the bottom to make into a heart shape.
  11. Place the spirals on a well greased baking sheet.
  12. Allow to rise for 15 minutes before baking.
  13. Bake for about 9-11 minutes.
For the cream cheese frosting
  1. Beat together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla. Add the powdered sugar a little bit at a time and beat until smooth. Spread over cinnamon rolls. Drizzle with more Nutella.
