Recipe: Nutella-Coffee Hot Chocolate (and cupcakes)

We made some cupcakes at home today but didn't have any frosting, so I suggested frosting them with coffee-flavored Nutella. I dissolved a some instant coffee in hot water - just enough to dissolve it. Then I mixed in Nutella and added hot water as needed to thin it out and make it smooth.

We had a lot of frosting left over, so I wisked it with hot milk to make hot chocolate.

This was a good idea...

Nutella is good. Instant coffee is of Satan.

Yeah, I'd have to agree with you on that one, but somehow I own it.

It speaks to your culinary prowess that you were able to make something palatable of it.

I will cast no stones, since I too have a jar in the fridge and occasionally forget myself and make a cup.
