World Nutella Day 2012

It’s that oh so special delightful day we like to call, World Nutella Day!!!

In previous years, I’ve participated in World Nutella Nutella Day with Mom & Me’s Nutella & Peanut Butter Cookies where I incorporated Nutella into an original recipe I’ve made many times over the years.  Then for World Nutella Day 2010, I made Cupcakes with Nutella Butter Cream Frosting  (complete with drizzled Nutella on top in place of sprinkles).

This year, I was excited to make some type of cookie using Nutella, but unfortunately, my local supermarket didn’t have all the ingredients I needed.  I have to admit I was disappointed but I wasn’t going to let it get me down.  Last night (actually it was more like early this morning); a friend and I hit up a local bar/cornetteria here in Cosenza called Top Flight to have one of their famous gigantic cornetti.  What better way to end a night out on the town/or kick-start your morning right than with a gigantic cornetto ozzing with Nutella!!  Dee-lish!

If eating Nutella isn’t enough to satisfy your Nutella craving, check out The Unofficial Guide to Nutella ebook.

As always, I want to send a big shout-out to the lovely hostess’ of World Nutella Day – Sara Rosso (Ms. Adventures in Italy) and Michelle (Bleeding Espresso).  Be sure to check out the Nutella Day website to discover new tasty recipes submitted by people/bloggers/etc from all over the world.

Nutella is without a doubt an Italian staple that is appreciated all over the world.  So, don’t forget to indulge.
