Nutella Pancakes

When I read on Twitter that my friend NotSoSingleMum was organising a Nutella Carnival I had to take a detour on the way home to pick some up!

I just love Nutella and thought I would rise to the challenge. My kids love making pancakes so this proved to be a relatively easy choice to occupy them on a Sunday morning with just a little stress thrown in for good measure!

Stress I hear you say surely not, afraid my dear 6 yo daughter helped weigh, mix, pour and spoon delicious Nutella and toss the pancakes. But when asked to pose for the photos she flatly refused saying " I don't want you to put my picture on Facebook, your going to put it on Facebook!" I was mortified I tried to reassure her to no avail... will she be shy of Facebook when she's older?

So one of my boys stepped in for the photo.



Here's the recipe why not give it a go...makes about 6 pancakes double the quantities for a hungry family!



Nutella 2 Tablespoons

2 Eggs

4 oz Plain Flour
3 fl ozWater

7 fl oz Milk

2oz Melted Butter

  • Put flour in bowl add eggs and mix.

  • Combine water & milk gradually pour into mixture and mix together a little at a time - be careful to make sure there are no lumps...

  • Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter & use the rest to cook the pancakes with.

  • Add 2 tablespoons of melted Nutella to the mix

  • Use a little melted butter to fry each pancake on a medium heat. When it starts to bubble & rise it is time to toss them & cook the other side!

  • Serve with melted Nutella either inside before rolling or & drizzled over the top. We didn't have any icecream but add your choice for a decadent breakfast or dessert.
No holding back once the pancakes were ready, we had 2 pans on the go and Nutella Pancakes with extra Nutella and sugar were a big hit!


    Enjoy :-)

    Busy humid day here at Say it with Chocolate

    Had one of our busiest printing and wrapping days so far...over 500 chocolate bars sat in boxes on the floor at one point and still more to go but think it is time for bed very soon as the witching hour has long passed!

    Glad my children were at school their little eyes would have been on stalks!

    Here's a couple of our smaller birthday orders ready for special parties at the weekend...


    Glad to say that non of our chocolate has melted but we're sure it won't be hanging around for long once those lucky people get their hands on it.

    Why not let us design special birthday chocolates for your party?

    Is my siwchooclate blog the last for CyberMummy 2010 ?

    Well where to start....I am almost, yes almost lost for words!

    I was so looking forward to meeting and chatting with my fellow CyberMummy's that  with all the chaos leading up to it all I managed to lose my voice. However not to miss out I did try and catch up with some of you over my clipboard and I'm so glad I did!
