Nutella Truffles

February 5, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Happy National Nutella Day!  You know I had to participate in this wonderful day!  After all it’s Nutella!!  I don’t know if you recall, but I fell in love with Nutella when I was in Europe this summer.  I never had it before, until one day I was at my hotel and I wanted peanut butter for my yogurt parfait.  There was no peanut butter to be found.  At that time I already used my stash of Justin’s Nut Butter, so for a creamy desperateness I decided to try Nutella!  Oh man, the creamy hazelnut spread won my heart, until…

Nutella Truffles

I discovered Nutella was made with stuff I didn’t know and it is far from natural.  Plus you Guys informed me that Nutella isn’t healthy.  I thought I was getting a nice chocolate nut butter but come to find out it’s loaded with sugar!  So what does one do when they now have a Nutella addiction?  Make your own!  So I did, you can find the recipe here.

Homemade Nutella


Since I started making Nutella a month or so ago, I have been a happy little camper!   So with my homemade creamy, drippy sweet homemade Nutella I decided that I would make Nutella Truffles!!  Man, big mistake!  These truffles are so good, but at least they are pretty healthy for you too!!

Nutella Truffles

These truffles are made with my Nutella, ground gluten-free oats that I got from Trader Joe’s, maple syrup, vanilla extract and some adorable Valentine’s Chocolate Covered Sunflower Seeds that I picked up at Tj Maxx.  I got the idea to add the sunflower seeds from Jessica over at How Sweet It Is.  She made some cookie balls and threw in some sunflower seeds and I thought that was such a cute idea!

Nutella Truffles

These truffles are quite amazing and so addicting!!  A perfect little treat to give a loved one at Valentine’s Day!  They are soft and is totally Nutella!  I swear it’s like your almost eating it by the spoonful!!  I am loving these truffles!!  As I sit here and write this, I want to run to my fridge and have another, but I’m trying to be good, since I already ate two and it’s not even noon yet!!

Nutella Truffles

I bet your curious to what one looks like when you take a bite of this little chocolaty goodness?

Nutella Truffles

Yah pure yumminess!  I almost forgot to tell you, I decided to roll my little truffles in a mixture of powdered sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder to give it more of a chocolate candy taste!  I’m telling you to pack these little guys in a box and give to someone!  They will be sure to put a smile on their face!

    I may just have to jump on the nutella bandwagon. I’ve never tried it before, but since I’m an avid baker I think I might be missing out!

    I think I would be fine with just having that big bowl of homemade nutella and calling it a day 🙂 I love the idea of the added texture with the sunflower seeds. I never to think to add little things like nuts and such when I’m baking unless they’re already in a recipe

    Those little sunflower seeds are from Kimmie Candies in Reno. We were there the other day and our guide told us that they had product in TJ Maxx/Home Goods. You can order them online if you can’t get them at TJs.

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room. 
🌸
I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

I updated my little corner by adding some pops of yellow. I just love adding yellow and I love adding lemons. Speaking of lemons, how cute is my little “Hello Sunshine” pillow is from @krumpetshomedecor.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle. 
🌻
Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
