Chocolate Nutella Pudding Pie

Have I drawn you in with the title of this post? As if pudding, or pie wasn’t enough on it’s own. Add some nutella. My obsession. I saw this pudding and I knew I had to make it. 10 minutes to make homemade pudding. Um yeah? And I still had half of a pie crust [...]

what we’re eating

Anyone surprised that this is another pinterest recipe? I had been looking for an excuse to make a 5 pound chocolate bundt cake because well, I don’t know that it’s a good idea to have so much chocolate sitting in your house staring at you. But it is a good idea to bring 5 pounds [...]
