Happy World Nutella Day!
Being that I'm still kind of a newbie to Nutella I had no idea that today was Nutella Day! I found out through reading some tweets this morning. I knew right away what I wanted to make. I found this recipe a week ago, it was actually on Foodbuzz Top 9 made by the kitchenarian. Soon as I saw it, I just knew that I had to give these brownies a try, and I’m so glad I did. I’m also glad that I followed the recipe to a T and it’s only a small batch because I really am trying to do better in what I eat. Yes I love sweets, but I really want to add more healthy sweets to my favs list.
Although Nutella is a healthy little snack I think it is still something that you should eat in moderations. I just won a giveaway (My 1st giveaway) cookbook from Sandra's Easy Cooking and I can’t wait until I receive it so I can try out all the healthy sweets in it. But back to the brownies, they are delicious, very fudgy! Baby B said mommy, I want that brownie for dessert all week, and it’s very good. I think you all should try them out, for World Nutella Day!
Also it is my little cousin's 25th Birthday so I must give him a shout out,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARRETT!!! I love you!! J
