Since it's world Nutella Day, I thought I would share a round-up of all my desserts for two with Nutella!
First up: Banana Nutella Chimichangas---the first recipe I ever created with Nutella. This is my version of a sweet breakfast taco. A chimichanga is essentially a fried burrito. My version with diced bananas and Nutella will be your favorite!
We need some cupcakes with Nutella, don't we? No matter the question, the answer is always cupcakes. You'll love my small batch of triple chocolate cupcakes. The centers are filled with gooey Nutella. The chocolate whipped cream on top is divine. You can thank me for this one.
Next up: Nutella Eclair Cake. Have you ever had eclair cake? It consists of vanilla pudding smushed between graham crackers with a chocolate frosting on top. I've had Eclair Cake at Portillos in Chicago (the place where it was invented), and I can tell you that my version is better because it uses homemade vanilla pudding with Frangelico.
Have you ever wanted to make macarons, but didn't want to make an entire batch? Macarons can be finicky, and so I created my recipe for a small batch of French macarons with Nutella. The recipe makes 6 macarons. You don't have to share.

Those Banana Nutella Chimichangas are calling my name! I posted something in honor of the holiday too. My most decadent dessert in awhile and I loved every bite! Love this holiday!

A recipe for 6 macarons? Thats amazing! Sometimes all you want it six. All to yourself. So much easier to destroy the evidence!
Christina says
I'm all about destroying the evidence.... ;)

French macaroons with NUTELLA. Just stop it! And by stop it, I mean don't! :-) I had no idea it was world nutella day! Any ideas how I can stay "in the know" on world food celebrations? I wouldn't want to miss a perfect reason to go at a jar of nutella with a spoon...
Christina says
Gosh, I've been wondering the same thing, Erin! I hear about all things through twitter. But there must be a foodie calendar floating around out there. I'll let you know if I find anything :)
Meghan {For the Love of Dessert} says
I'd be lying if I didn't admit my favorite way to eat Nutella is by the spoonful. I also had no idea it was world Nutella day. What an amazing excuse to go grab a spoon... haha.
Jessica@AKitchenAddiction says
Oh, I want one of each!
Carla @ Carlas Confections says
Oh man! Your macarons look perfect! Mine failed :( but they still tasted yummy so I filled them with nutella too! They were so good! I think that would be my fave way to eat nutella, although those chimichangas look amazing!
