Rule #2: Always kiss the chef

Excuse the inaudible jabber and preposterous beginning...I'm a little embarrassed you have to see that side of me so early in our relationship...But please enjoy this yummy after-school snack! It's Nathaniel's favorite :)

"Ants On a Log" presented by Tin&Pan...



Last line: "It's full of SUGAR" ...not whatever it sounded like I was going to say. ;) -N

Nathaniel says: We thought we were going to use raisins. Turns out we didn't have any. The chocolate chips were awesome though! We like to play with our food. We're working on how to use the camera. We didn't have a program to edit the video, or you would have thought it was professionally done...or not. Anyway, enjoy, or don't. You're here by choice and welcome to leave anytime...but don't let the virus program you'll get from leaving our blog hit you on the way out.

Rule #1: Play with your food


Ok...so they're not food yet. But they will be. That's the plan at least. How does warm homemade Punkin-Chocochip Bread sound to you?? I wanna slice now! But, alas, we need those little Jack-o's protecting us from goblins and boogie-monsters until Halloween. So...until then...enjoy this yummy-for-your-tummy I just received from a new friend:

Nutella Pie

1 jar Nutella
1 half-pint whipping cream
1/4-1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 pre-made (or homemade, you fancy chefs) chocolate pie crust
1 gallon-sized bag

Beat whipping cream until it looks about right (not too soft, not too stiff...like whipped cream...you know). Add in powdered sugar. Fold in all the yummy goodness that comes out of your Nutella jar. Keep on folding until your once white cream is all brown and chocolately. Then take your gallon-sized bag and cut one of the corners about an inch or so thick. Fill the bag with your Nutella-cream and pipe all that yumminess into a swirl in your pie crust! Voila! Enjoy the most delicious and easy pie ever!
