Nutella Wrapped Pillows

Ever have one those days where you browse the internet and the only thing you see are foods you want to make? Yeah, me neither.


Nutella seems to make everything better. For some reason I eat it for months straight then I never touch it again. I recently rediscovered Nutella and decided to make something out of it.


I'm also human. Keep in mind that I fail just like everyone else out there. This was not my most shining moment until the end when I figured out how to fold the little wrappers.


The original recipe called for wanton wrappers but I only had egg roll wrappers. Totally, kinda, not really works. But I made it work.


Gather your ingredients.

Pretty basic stuff. Egg wash, cinnamon and sugar, egg roll wrappers/wanton wrappers, and Nutella.


Wrap the nutella and sprinkle with some cinnamon sugar



Bake, place on a fancy plate and eat them. I recommend some cold milk to go with.



Ingredients:
Egg roll wrappers/Wanton wrappers
Egg Wash
Nutella
Sugar and cinnamon mix

Preheat oven to 350F. Brush egg wash all over egg roll wrapper, front and back, so it becomes pliable. This is where I failed at first. Cut each wanton wrapper in half before put nutella in and trying to fold.

Put a small dollop of nutella in the middle of the wanton wrapper. Fold over and seal in.  My recommended method (which of course I couldn't photograph because both hands were sufficiently covered in egg wash by this point) is to cut a wanton wrapper in half. Place nutelle in middle of wrapper and fold horizontally so the wrapper is really long but skinny. Then fold each end across the middle so it looks like the tails of a bow. Wrap those around and viola! Rolls them in the sugar cinnamon mix. Bake for 8-10 minutes.

Lasts about 3-4 days.

First Day of School

It seems like everyone is going back to school! Jaxon started preschool this last week. He actually went for a few months last school year but this is his first "first day of schoool" experience. Everyone has asked how he's doing and it's kind of funny. The question almost seems odd to me. He LOVES school. He gets to go outside of the house for 2 hours, 3 days a week and see his friends and play with his teachers. Yes, I understand it's school and he's learning, but at preschool age it's a lot of fun for him. Here's some fun photos from his first day. How cute is he with his little backpack? They had this adorable little photo booth for kids on their first day. I tried to get him to pose so I could read the sign. Of course the sign turned into a bird. What can I do. I tried. Jaxon posed with his teacher. She's so sweet, it's her first year teaching and she reminds me of gum drops and rainbows and puppy dog tails. Everythi...

2 Year Anniversary

May 15th is our anniversary. For out two year anniversary we went to the Grand Canyon. It really couldn't have been greater. Here are some of the pictures from this past weekend. This was our cabin and the view from our window We learned how to lasso and saw tadpoles Relaxed and enjoyed the view I do have some travel tips for you. If a place if called "Out of this World", you really should stop and try their food. Eat a burger, take a picture, order a cake (try to be better than me and snap a picture before you scarf it down), also, order a pizza to take back to your room. It'll be worth it. Trust me.

Pake

When did life change so much? One kid become two? Stay at mom become stay at mom and worker? Errands become errands and more errands because they are never finished? Seven become seven and eleven? Wait... I may have gotten a little off track with that last one. Life is always so crazy it seems that one you finally get used to it, something changes. That's what pake is. Something you're not used to but it can totally work. A pake: half pie, half cake. Don't worry, we're not talking apple pie with frosting. It's a pie crust with red velvet cake and cream cheese frosting. Now this is a learning lesson. The original recipe I used is from  Lifetime . It was originally made on a show called "Drop Dead Diva". Total chic show but it was fun. The only thing it that whatever world they cook in, cakes rise several inches. Here in the normal world? Not so much. I've modified the recipe slightly below. Ingredients: Pie Crust - Either make your own or ...
