Valentine's Day Recipe: Chocolate Paninis - YUM!

Hello Loves,

I came across this wonderful recipe for Valentine's Day! Are you ready for....CHOCOLATE PANINIS?!

Omg, when I saw this photo on Pinterest, I thought to myself, Why didn't I think of that?

It's simple to make and oh so yummy to eat. Also, you can use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to shape the paninis into little hearts like in the photo below.

Here's the recipe, courtesy of myrecipes.com:
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 
  • 8 pieces of thinly sliced white sandwich bread 
  • 1/2 cup Nutella 
  • 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped 
Prep Work:
  1. Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. Lay slices on a piece of waxed paper, butter side down. Spread 1 heaping tablespoonful of Nutella over four slices. Sprinkle chocolate over, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Cover with remaining bread, butter side up.
  2. Warm a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, place panini on griddle and cook, pressing down with a spatula, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until golden, about 2 minutes. Cool slightly and use a sharp cutter to form heart shapes, or cut diagonally into triangles. Repeat with remaining panini.
Now get ready for a mouthgasm as you and your significant other nosh on these tasty treats!!

P.S.
