World Nutella Day 2/5

[HillJ]

http://www.nutelladay.com/ Did you celebrate?

I baked this cake
(along with some chocolate/coconut brownies
)http://www.jamieoliver.com/foodwise/article-view.php?id=2196
along with (my first time trying) Nutella hot chocolate.

Not a bad way to end the day!

Loads of inspiration from around the globe:

Shoot, wish I'd known. We had a rainy, blah day and I spent the whole day baking. I was trying to decide between a batch of Nutella scones and classic currant scones. I went with the currant. Had I but known.

I've made Nutella and banana filled egg rolls very similar to this recipe lilgi. I'm sure they taste the same & strawberry, kiwi, star fruit would all work nicely. Yum.

Well, I missed out on Nutella baking for the day. Your egg rolls sound awesome, and you reminded me of one of my favorite combos too, strawberry-banana. My kids don't care for it, wish they did.

My kids will be thrilled. For New Year's I made grilled nutella & goat cheese sandwiches (courtesy of "Great Grilled Cheese" by Laura Werlin) and holy cow did everyone -- from age 2 on up -- love them.

Now this is a holiday I can get behind!

Since I missed it, I guess I can spend the next year in preparation...
Tough job, but someone has to do it!

I think it might take more than a year to work through the recipes on that website. Wow.

[ipsedixit]

No.

But to be honest, I sort of celebrated yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that ...

[HillJ]

show off!

I had no idea but I have two jars in the kitchen cabinet....I'll grab a spoon....

I'm baking the nutella and peanut butter brownies in about an hour.

[HillJ]

The sunflower seed pb (TJ's) and Nutella brownies are also good; especially with homemade pb ice cream :) but I needed 10 mins more (total of 35) than the recipe called for.

[Cherylptw]

I'm going to make those brownies!

this is the recipe I selected from the Nutella recipe page, sub'ing sunflower seed pb for original. Let me know what you think after you bake your batch!
