Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave, then allow it to cool slightly.
Toast the hazelnuts lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once toasted, roughly chop the hazelnuts and set aside.
Lay a sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface. Brush the entire surface lightly with melted butter.
Place another sheet of phyllo dough on top of the first, and repeat the buttering process. Continue layering and buttering until you have used all 10 sheets.
Spread the chocolate hazelnut spread evenly across the top layer of phyllo, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the chopped toasted hazelnuts evenly over the chocolate hazelnut spread.
Carefully roll the layered phyllo and filling into a log shape, starting from one of the long edges. Tuck in the ends slightly to seal.
Place the log seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, and brush the outside of the log generously with melted butter.
Using a sharp knife, score the top of the log at 1-inch intervals for easy slicing after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
While the dessert is baking, whisk together the honey and vanilla extract in a small bowl to create a glaze.
Remove the dessert from the oven and immediately brush the honey-vanilla glaze over the top while it is still warm.
Let the dessert cool for 10 minutes before slicing along the scored lines.
Dust with powdered sugar, and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy this decadent treat fit for queens!
