Nutella Stuffed Pancakes

Spreading a little love as V day is fast appraching! Since Valentine's day falls on Thursday this year, it will be difficult for me to make special breakfast, lunch and dinner for the special day. So I decided to spread it over the entire week. This is the V day breakfast that we just had this morning. I will be making a special dinner next Saturday and in between, we will have a lunch planned on the 10th! I think this is the great way to celebrate a day in a week.

Back to the post, well, as the name suggests, these are stuffed pancakes. Stuffed with the goodness of Nutella. Just like all of you, my family is crazy about this chocolatey hazelnut spread. Sometimes for a quick chocolate or sugar fix, I take it in a spoon and devour it just like that. It's that good, this stuff!  I've made Nutella Stuffed French Toasts which was a big hit in my household. So this time around, I've come up with another Nutella recipe which was equally delish. The only problem was, we can't stuff Nutella all over the pancakes as they cook so fast. So I had to be content with spreading the Nutella in the middle of the pancake and then wait till I get to the middle while enjoying the pancake. I did try spreading it all around by thinning out Nutella a bit, it gave me nice swirls which was ok, but not exactly what I wanted. Maybe next time, I will place dollops of Nutella all over the pancakes instead of just putting it in the middle. That way I can have a better tasting stuffed pancakes. But in the meantime, I am happy with these babies.
