Nutella + Panna Cotta; Could it be?!

Found this recipe over on lululu at home and had to share.

Ingredients (serves 8):
1 tablespoon powdered gelatin
3 tablespoons cold water
1 cup Nutella
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk
1/3 cup almond slices or chocolate chips to garnish

Directions:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gelatin and 3 tablespoons cold water.
Put the Nutella and salt in another medium bowl and set aside.
In a saucepan, bring the cream and vanilla to a boil. Pour 1/3 of the hot cream mixture over the gelatin and whisk it well.
Then pour the gelatin mixture back into the remaining cream.
Pour about 1/3 of the cream mixture over the Nutella. Whisk well to form a smooth paste. Add the remaining cream mixture and whisk well to combine.
Whisk in the milk.
Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a big measurement cup, then divide it among eight ramekins, glasses or cups. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.

Garnish with almond slices or chocolate chips.

Pumpkin Weekend

This past weekend was pumpkin weekend! Kyle and I went to Jacob's Family Orchard to select our pumpkins, sample an apple cider donut, and pick up apple cider. It was a lot of fun and a gorgeous day to be outside!

Fun Finds

Thanks to Bobbie Thomas, who everyone should follow on Twitter, I learned some cool things to do with old nail polishes. The article mentioned several things that I had heard before, as well as a genius idea I had not considered.


The article linked to an artist's website, Jennifer Bright Art. Jennifer uses her nail polishes to create some pretty cool art. Check out the one below, as well as her website: http://www.jenniferbrightart.com/
