For those of you who have not tried the amazing chocolate-hazelnut spread that is Nutella, go and buy yourself a jar. Just like how you can put cheese on so much to make it better, the same can be said about Nutella. Read on for some chocolate induced cravings that are more exciting than eating it straight from the jar:

Nutella on oatmeal

Why not start the day off on a happy and delicious note? As Nutella melts into a bowl of hot oatmeal, the stress about everything else you need to get done fades away. Throw some peanut butter or chocolate chips in for a morning treat, or try some nuts and bananas for a healthier way to punch up your oatmeal.
