This dish is for my favorite St. Louis couple, who recently discovered the joys of Nutella. I wanted to share one of my favorite ways to eat the stuff... one that doesn't involve sneaking spoonfuls straight from the jar. Something I never do. Never.
Anyway...
I've taken french toast, tarted up the batter with cocoa, dredged it in chocolate cookie crumbs and stuffed it with Nutella. Toss this in a panini press and it cooks it up light and crisp on the outside and a hot and gooey in the middle. Yum!
I've taken the toast and topped it with a little powdered sugar, fresh whip cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce, because with french toast like this, there really is no point in holding back.
Not so Humble's Crumb Coated Nutella French Toast:
8 slices of french bread or brioche
1/2 cup chocolate wafer or cookie crumbs
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon cocoa powder

Remove the crust and slice it down the middle. Coat one side of each slice with a liberal amount of Nutella and set aside. Get your panini press hot or place a skillet on medium heat.
The toast is now ready for whatever toppings you can dream up.
