On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into 5-inch rounds. Line the prepared pans with the dough circles. Use a small kitchen knife to trim the excess and to score the tops of the tartlets.

Remove from oven and let the tart shells cool a few minutes before inverting and transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Fold in Nutella to combine.
-
Spoon the Nutella mixture into the cooled shortbread tartlet crusts, and place them in the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour.
