I have to admit I love Nutella. I can eat it by the spoonful. So Nutella flavoured hot chocolate sounds like heaven to me. This recipe is super easy to make and I have included a few variations to suit anyone's taste.
Ingredients:
Variations:
Microwave method:
Pour water/milk into microwavable cup and heat for 2 min. Add Nutella and microwave for another minute. (Ezara mentioned below that if you have a higher power microwave these times are a bit high; try heating the water for 1 minute, add the Nutella and heat for another 40s). Stir and serve.
Make it creamier:
Replace all or part of the water with milk/cream. Stir/whisk constantly while heating. Froth up the milk if you have a frother.
Make it more chocolaty:
Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder.
Make it spicier:
Add a pinch (or more) of cayenne pepper and/or a teaspoon of cinnamon.
Make it more caffeinated:
Add a 1/2-1 teaspoon instant espresso powder or replace some of the water with brewed espresso.
