Nutella: A chocolate hazelnut spread

I know I posted one of these pics up in the "What I baked/cooked today" thread, but I'd like to get feedback from other people.

To be completely honest, today was my first day eating Nutella. Ever. I've heard great things and I'm not really sure why I've never had it before. I think it's just never been convenient for me b/c I didn't have my own jar. Well, I finally took the plunge and bought a jar. It tastes exactly like the inside of a Ferrerro Rocher!

The taste is super rich and now I have this whole jar to myself b/c I'm the only one here with a sweet tooth...and what to do?! Help me come up with delicious ways of finishing the jar without just scooping it out with a spoon.

With the mission to eat Nutella in mind, I went into the kitchen and made some Nutella crepes and Nutella macarons. (click for recipes) I'm going to turn into a real fattie b/c of this jar. Hm...the thought of spreading it on some bread for some reason doesn't seem very appealing to me, although I'll probably try it. Has anyone had it on waffles?

How do YOU eat Nutella?

I think there's already a thread on Nutella...maybe not? Anyways, I love love love Nutella. I like making cookies with Nutella. I also like having what Giada made on Food Network - the cookies with nutella, mint, strawberyy, and gelato very very very yummy!

I worship nutella.. haha best food (I don't think it's really considered food) invented ever..


I usually scoop it with a spoon and eat it plain, put it on toast or crackers, or make "hot chocolate" with it..



I heat milk and nutella in a saucepan to create the "hot chocolate" <3

[AresJK]

this is some sick stuf.........


lol i'm jk haha
I usually just eat it with toast

[JunDaMan]

Nutella is great, I eat it with bread.

[babii3xquiisit3]

with that
and i swear there's already a nutella thread

[crystal blue]

oops, my bad if there's a nutella thread already! i've never wandered into this food section before so i didn't know.

xm1chelle: it looks like we keep writing back and forth to each other! anyway, do you have the cookie recipe?

[aiaigasa]

between crackers and bread usually... they're a divine filling for crepes though T^T with bananas...

when i was a fat kid i used to put it in my ice cream
or make dense cookies from cake mix and make ice cream sandwiches -- take two "cookies", spread nutella on one, add a scoop of ice cream, and put the other "cookie" on top

T^T haven't had it in so long... it's so fattening ><

[soulremix.]

[ma_mel03]

so, how do i eat it?: finger dip in, finger in mouth, finger dip in...you get the idea! hehe...it's soooo good i don't need anything else, but i definitely do have to take it in small doses because i get so hyper after i eat a lot of it!

[c'erine]

spread with peanut butter on bread or cookies or waffers = super yum

[xMaggie__]

Mmmmm. They taste so good, they taste just like those chocolate ^o^ I ate some at my cousins house because but not a lot

I love to scoop it with a spoon and eat it. And sometimes I'll eat it together with bread.
