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

    I’m not sure how I missed Nutella Day, but I’m seriously sad after seeing so many Nutella recipes on blogs I follow. These truffles look so good! Perfect for Valentine’s Day coming up. 🙂

    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.

Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Have a beautiful day!

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. 
🌸
Have a wonderful Monday!!
