Nutella hearts recipe

Hi guys,

Bringing you a bonus post this week!

I hope everyone had a good Valentines weekend ♥

Mark and I don't really celebrate it. I mean, does anyone really know anymore why it exists?! I just see it as a bit of light hearted fun and I really do believe it shouldn't be taken too seriously. 

Saying that though we did do cards this year and I bought Mark a box of Lindor chocolates, which are his favorite and I'm quite partial too. I only got them as they are like gold dust here and I couldn't find any for his Birthday back in January. So when I saw a mixed box (the red ones are his faves) I had to get them. They were a mix of dark, milk and white chocolate. Obviously the milk (red) are delicious. I'm into dark chocolate at the mo, but to be honest the dark chocolate Lindor were just OK, I expected more to be honest. The white chocolate were really tasty and definitely came in second place to the milk chocolate ones. 

Anyway, slightly digressing as per usual. You are here for the Nutella hearts.

The last few Christmases I've made the Nutella Christmas tree, so when I saw I still had some puff pastry in the freezer and with Valentines looming the next day I thought I'd make some Nutella hearts.

This is such an easy recipe. Which is what I like. Quick, easy, tasty treat. 

You will need

Ingredients

+ Ready rolled puff pastry 

+ Nutella

+ Some milk

+ Icing sugar

Tools

+ Heart shaped cookie cutter 

(or any shape as these can be made all year round, lol)

+ Greaseproof paper

+ Oven baking tray

+ Small sieve

+ Pastry brush 

+ Fork & teaspoon


To make the Nutella hearts

This is literally so easy and quick

+ Pre-heat your oven 180°c or equivalent

+ Put a sheet of greaseproof paper on your baking tray

+ Roll out the pastry

(I always sprinkle some flour on my chopping board for the pastry just incase it sticks, not sure if it's actually needed for the ready rolled, but just incase - your preference)

+ Use your cookie cutter to cut out the hearts & place on your baking tray

+ Put a teaspoon of Nutella in the middle of each heart

+ Cut out some more hearts & place them on top of the Nutella ones

+ With the fork gently press the sides down

+ Brush the tops with some milk

(you can also use egg if you prefer, but I just prefer milk)

+ Put in the oven for 15 - 18 mins

(I do 15 mins first, then if I feel they need longer, pop them back in the oven, just keep an eye on them a minute at a time!)

+ When you've taken them out of the oven sprinkle some icing sugar over them

(be careful, I'm always heavy handed and one or two always gets coated!)

+ Enjoy! ♥

Happy New Year

  Happy New Year! I just wanted to pop on here quickly and wish you all a very Happy New Year. As you know I've recently started the blog up again and it has been a bit of a slow burner getting back into it. The last couple of weeks something seems to have switched though and I really want to get up and running properly. I know I've literally done two posts and this will be my third lol, but I am really enjoying having a blog again and sharing whatever comes along. I'm under no illusion the blog will be a slow burner, which to be honest I want it to be, I want to get myself into the swing of it all, challenge myself and get myself into the habit of posting regularly and consistently. The beauty of blogs is that they can be read at any time which is wonderful, but I think for me to get into the habit that I want, I need to have a focused day I will release my posts on. So, for now I am going to start posting just once a week to begin with on a Thursday. (Hence me making sure...

Backing up pictures

  Good morning friends! In today's post I'm chatting about something I should of definitely taken my own advice on years ago! For about the last week or so I've been getting emails and notifications on my Gmail that I'm running out of space and I'm pretty much at full capacity. Since I've been saving my videos to upload to my YouTube for my vlogs I have noticed my space being taken up quite quickly. I've been quite good at clearing the Google drive and deleting videos from pictures as soon as I'm finished with uploading everything for my YouTube videos. But it's still close to full capacity. I've pretty much deleted all my emails - luckily Gmail isn't my main account, but the pictures seem to be what's taking up the most space. I literally had no idea that every time I take a picture they are not only saving to my phone gallery, but they are going over to Google pictures too. Please tell me I'm not the only person in the world not to ...

My daily beauty products

  Hi Guys, I hope 2026 is treating you well so far. In my previous  post  I mentioned about some beauty products I had just started using and I will report to you my thought's in due course, but it got me to thinking about the products I already use on a daily basis. My bathroom staples if you like, the go-to's.  It's something I'm always curious to know, what are the products on peoples sinks, their everyday toiletries. Not the ones that maybe an ad feature or collaboration, but the ones that get popped in the shopping basket week after week, month after month. The products that may not be as aesthetically pleasing, but always make the cut. I'm not going to go through every single product I use, 'cause quite frankly you and me just don't have the time and if you're anything like me you haven't got the attention span for it either. But I am going to show you the main players that I literally use everyday. Some I do switch up according to price and ju...
