Nutella Hot Chocolate

this recipe

Nutella is the answer. Whatever the question. Nutella is the answer. What should I put on my toast? Nutella. What is the key to sustainable world peace? Nutella. Why did the chicken cross the road? Nutella.

This Nutella Hot Chocolate recipe is everything a Nutella Hot Chocolate recipe should be - warm, nutty, chocolate-y, and sweet.

If ever there were two things that didn’t need improvement, they’d probably be Nutella and Hot Chocolate. They go great with everything. Toast. Marshmallows. Spoons. You name it. But combining them has that ‘Mind = Blown’ quality that only ideas as simple as this can do.

And if this isn’t enough of a Nutella fix for you, check out my Nutella & Dark Chocolate French Toast recipe.

If you happen to have a fireplace, or even The Fireplace Channel, this is a perfect fireplace drink - warm and rich. I love that the sea salt enhances the flavour without taking over (for you lovers of salted chocolate, I’d recommend checking out my Ultimate Hot Chocolate recipe). Try it out and let me know what you think! Or even better, take a photo as well. Upload it to Instagram and tag me @yamisohungry.
