Nutella!


" If you like peanut butter, you will surely like Nutella!! The combination of roasted hazelnuts, skim milk and cocoa create a deliciously unique creamy, chocolaty taste with a hint of that roasted nut flavor that will delight your taste buds as you enjoy each delicious mouthful. What is Nutella? Nutella (pronounced new-tell-uh), is a deliciously unique spread made from cocoa, hazelnuts, and skim milk, that is spread delicious on a wide variety of breads. Nutella, in its original form, was first created in the 1940's by Mr. Pietro Ferrero, a pastry maker and founder of the Ferrero company. At the time, cocoa was in short supply because of rationing due to World War II, so chocolate was very limited. So Mr. Ferrero used hazelnuts, which are plentiful in the Piedmont region of Italy (northwest), to extend the chocolate supply."

"An original idea… NutellaThe first version of what would become the revolutionary invention of the century and what is now one of the most famous food specialities in the world – Nutella – was founded in a backroom of the pastry shop founded in Alba in 1944 by Pietro Ferrero. Since then, Nutella continues to inspire and satisfy the palate of the entire world: from the United States to Europe, Australia to Canada, its unique taste and its distinctive jar appeal to consumers of all generations. Thanks to its inimitable recipe and its genuine and carefully selected ingredients, Nutella, spread on bread, has become an essential element to the breakfast ritual and serves as a great way to begin the day."

I was lucky enough to get the chance to host a mommy party for Nutella!

I love Nutella. I discovered it a year or so ago, and have enjoyed it on toast, bagels, english muffins, etc. So I was really excited to get the chance to share it with friends!
I decided to think out of the box and made nutella cookies (used a peanut butter cookie recipe) and they were amazing! Everyone loved them!

Everyone got to leave with a fun goodie bag too!
