Nuts for Nutella Pizza



What is life without the sweeter things in life? By this, I mean food products with large masses of sugar that make you want to lick the skin of your fingers...aka NUTELLA. As your very own Caviar Contessa, I try to live life on the fancier side--eschewing typical college girl food fads (ever had an oreo/smores/snickers red velvet cupcake? me neither.) in favor of more refined morsels, yet I live by one exception, and that is Pinterest's golden child, Nutella. No hype necessary, this seriously good hazelnut paste was meant to be enjoyed in any and all possible forms. Paying homage to its country of origin, the Nuts for Nut-ella Pizza was born.

Ingredients:
(Recipe calls for all ingredients to be read in an "Italiano!" accent)
*Recipe yields 16 servings

-1 Package Pizza dough (this college girl used store bought Pillsbury, but you can make your own)
-Cooking Spray
-1 Jar NUTELLA
-2 Apples
-1/2 Cup Crushed Walnuts

What to Do:
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Roll out dough and cut into four sections
  3. Grease 2 mid-large cookie sheets
  4. Bake until dough rises slightly
  5. Using a spreading spatula, generously spread nutella onto dough sections (I used about 1/2 a jar)
  6. Sprinkle generously with walnuts
  7. Wash and thinly slice apples, place onto pizza and bake for 6-10 minutes
  8. Eat warm or enjoy later for a cookie-like treat (the nutella will cool and harden slightly)

We served our pizza deliciousness with some strong after dinner undergraduate coffee.

Can you say la dolce vita?
