Creative Cookie Exchange is today and I am also doing a cookbook review. A cute little cookbook with 30 best recipes from Nutella. Our theme was no-bake cookies for this month on Creative Cookie Exchange so these Nutella Clusters fit in beautifully!!!
I needed to make something for our church refreshments and didn’t want the oven on with our summer heat right now, so these no-bake Nutella Clusters were perfect and really enjoyed by the parishioners of the church too. They are crunchy with a deep rich chocolate flavor from the Nutella!! They are super easy to make too!! Three ingredients and that is it!!
The cookbook utilizes the wonderful versatility of Nutella, showcasing it in recipes like Mini Coconut and Nutella Palmiers, Pear and Nutella Crumble, Nutella Whoopie Pies, and Banana and Nutella Tartlets, to name a few. So many wonderful recipes that take you from just slathering it on toast to divine desserts. The cookbook is so cute as it looks like a jar of Nutella!! Each recipe in the book has a beautiful picture to accompany it, it is a very adorable book.
The author of this book is Ferrero USA, which first opened its business in 1969 and chose its lead product in the vast US market not to be Nutella but Tic Tac!! The company not only has Tic Tac but also Rocher and it hoping that Nutella with its distinctive taste will become a big success here like it is in Europe.

I found your blog yesterday while searching online for a Nutella recipe for the #peanutbutterbash. I grabbed the ingredients at the store and came home to make it.

I’ll be back to see what other fun things you are posting about soon. 🙂 ~Adrienne

Mmm, we love Nutella! (Though, really, who doesn’t?) I built a wood fired pizza oven in my backyard, and whenever we make pizza, we HAVE to make our dessert pizza with nutella, dollops of mascarpone, and a generous sprinkling of brown sugar. It’s so good that, when I’ve planned different desserts for a pizza night, our guests have rebelled and gone to the grocery store to get the ingredients during the party.

Yes super easy and don’t you just love Nutella Jill!!
Holly says
These sound similar to a treat my English friend makes called Crackle Cakes– I’ll have to ask her if she uses nutella or something else. With three ingredients these look quick to make and I bet they disappear quickly too!
