For those of you who know me very well, you probably know I love peanut butter. You also probably know I love chocolate even more. Well, this weekend in a semi-impulsive move I bought a double-pack of Nutella at Costco. Crazy, I know! I mean who tries something new by purchasing the double-pack?! That's what sampler sizes are for, afterall.I first remember being curious about Nutella when I traveled to Italy in 1995 and saw it in some stores there. Apparently, it originated in Italy. Recently, my curiosity about Nutella was raised again watching Giada De Laurentiis' cooking show on the Food Network. She uses it quite a bit and is a self-professed chocoholic. So, when I saw that double-pack staring at me, I knew it was time to give it a try.
I cracked open the jar that Saturday evening and in the words of Rachael Ray I say, "Yummo!" It appears I may have a new vice and I don't think that will be the last double-pack I'll be buying.

I am in love with Nutella! I don't hardly buy it anymore because I don't have much self control when it's around. I made one of Giada's recipes with it, and it was delicious! Maybe I'll splurge and get some for our next Girl's Night In.
I tried it a few months ago thanks to Cristie B. who said her mom used to make them nutella sandwiches when they lived over-seas. It is delicious. I love it on strawberries, graham crackers, and especially shortbread cookies. Yummy. I think I may go get some right now!
Hmmmmm....I've wondered for a long time about Nutella. I've never known anyone who ate it. Now, I think I'll have to try it!
