Easy Nutella Ganache Recipe (she: Susan)

Hi OSSS readers! It’s Susan back again, sharing a delectable recipe with you today.

My children love Nutella so I’m always looking for new ways to use it. Typically, I use it alone on a sandwich or with peanut butter.  I created an easy Nutella ganache recipe to dip some favorite snacks in. We dipped strawberries, animal crackers and pretzels- all were a hit. Ganache can be made with a few simple ingredients. One note- it doesn’t harden like tempered chocolate; it’s a bit softer. You should refrigerate to set it before serving.

Did you know world Nutella Day was February 5th? You’re not alone, neither did I! You’ll find my recipe below. Be sure to share your Nutella recipes in the comments. If you have someone who doesn’t like Nutella or has a nut allergy you can easily switch it out for one of the Hersey chocolate spreads. If you have leftovers you can warm it in the microwave and use it as Nutella hot fudge on ice cream!
