It has been a rainy/cloudy/cold/windy for us this season, so this was a perfect time to try something that I found on the internet (while browsing for other nutella-related recipes - again)... Simply Hot Choco.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 c unsweetened choco powder (I used Hershey's)
• 370 ml can of evaporated milk
• 2 tbsp nutella (or more, if you want)
• 1 1/2 c water
• 1 tsp vanila extract
• marshmallows
• dash of salt

some of the ingredients

Procedure:

• Place water and choco powder on a pot and bring to a boil. Mix then simmer for around four minutes.
• Add evaporated milk, nutella, and the salt.
• Simmer some more, about seven minutes.
• Once you're satisfied (thickness and taste), turn off the heat.
• Add vanila extract, then mix.
• Add marshmallows but leave some so that you can put some more on each serving cup.
• Take a sip and enjoy, as the warm and rich liquid keeps you warm inside and out!

Honestly, I found it too rich for my taste (that's why I only drank just a bit), but my nutella-crazy son loved it! Perfect for cool and windy nights...or even for those days and nights when you just want something comforting to sip on. :)

Have a 
HAPPY and PROSPEROUS 2013!!!

My post for this week is something that I saw online, while I was searching for recipes that uses Nutella (fyi - my son's latest fave); unfortunately, I just couldn't resist adding something to the recipe - and that's how the avocado got included. lol. Sorry, I forgot the site (there were LOTS that I browsed through)..suffice it to say, this recipe isn't originally mine (except for the addition of the avocado). lol. I call this Crazy Easy-Peasy Toast. :D

Ingredients

• Nutella
• bread, jam (I used mango), avocado, salted peanuts

Procedure

• Spread jam on bread then toast. Not too long, now. Add the sliced avocados then put in toaster...just a bit till it gets a bit toasted and dry.
• Drizzle some nutella on top (you might want to soften it in the microwave, if you want) and add some peanuts.
• Done!
• Had that with hot cheesey no-meat macaroni soup (will post recipe soon).

My sons had theirs without the avocado since they aren't too fond of the fruit like their mom. lol. I liked how the avocado added a new dimension to the taste - almost fresh-like and not too heavy (like what I was expecting). My son suggested bananas, but we were fresh out of bananas that day...next time. :)

To those who celebrate Christmas:
Advance MERRY CHRISTMAS, all!
