This truly is the simplest of recipes and makes a delicious dessert – I loved Nutella as a child and was forever caught digging my spoon into a big jar of the stuff! A little dark chocolate stops everything becoming a little too sweet.
This recipe is made with a gluten free base (the topping is naturally gluten free) which can be substituted for an ordinary biscuit base if desired.

Reblogged this on gracebickford.
I must come back to this post every other day to stare and dream. If only I had more spare time to cook at the moment. I’ll get around to this eventually though.
