Easy Strawberry Nutella Bars recipe. This dessert combines all of my favourite things: Nutella, Strawberries and Graham Cracker Crumbs.
I love Nutella. I would eat a jar everyday if I could. Make it into a food group of it’s own, you’d get my support.
And I don’t think I’m alone. Nutella theft has been seen quite a bit lately, with the Nutella theft in Germany which was valued at over $20 000, and the Nutella thefts in Columbia University, where the Dining Services spent close to $5000 on Nutella per week, while students would steal away with it soup containers and other containers to eat later.
But I found a jar of Nutella at the very back of my cupboard the other day…right where I was hiding it from myself. Good thing I found it, I had a major chocolate and strawberry craving. And so, these bars were made.
These Strawberry Nutella Bars were very buttery, and rich, but oh so good at the same time.
The layers are so make it so much better, and the Nutella layer is to DIE for.
Usually when I am craving Strawberry and Nutella, I will make my Banana Split Oatmeal. But when I want something small, these bars are my go-to.
I swear, these bars could definitely be its own food group.
