Did a little trial run for my blogging about cooking this eve with my son George! Working my way up to the slow cooker lasagne! I might even look at the instructions before I go to bed, but must admit I'm getting cold feet!
Well back to this evening! When I got in with George he got out his Nutella recipe book that he was given to for christmas and asked if we could make something! Being smart I said if we have the ingredients for one we can make it! (I thought this was going to be an impossible challenge for him as u always have something missing)
A little while later he emerged from the kitchen with a huge smile and the Nutella recipe book! We can make these he exclaimed and dragged me back to the kitchen! He had the ingredients laid out to make Nutella Clusters! Well he used his initiative bless him before me I saw a jar of Nutella, a pack of frosties and a Thorntons chocolate Santa. The actual recipe calls for 90g/3oz of milk chocolate, 120g (half a cup) of Nutella and 40g (1 3/4 of a cup) of corn flakes. It's pretty simple just melt the chocolate and Nutella n then add the cornflakes, give me a good coating, spoon mixture into cake cases or make little clusters on grease prof paper on a baking sheet. We used cake cases which made 12 but the recipe says it makes 15 if you take the baking sheet option.
We made them in 10 mins n then just had to wait 2 hours for them to set! We had little help licking spoons and bowls by the dog! He ended up with melted chocolate on his snout and I have just discovered a spoon on his rug lol
Oh n by the way they tasted YUM! Right off to look at the slow cooker lasagne instructions wish me luck!
