What is a Nutella Board?

It’s kind of what it sounds like, Nutella on a board, except it’s versatile and meant to be decorated with all kinds of treats. You can serve this with fruity pieces like bananas and straberries or nuts, coconut flakes, whipped cream, etc. 

Dessert boards are a perfect party treat because of it’s unique and festive presentation, and… it’s all on one board! Easy and fun for all to grab, dip and enjoy! 

Why you’ll love this recipe

  • It’s football season here in America so I thought that making a Nutella board would be the perfect to shape into a football. But feel free to adjust this treat to whatever festivity you like. I have seen this look great for Valentines day, Halloween and more!
  • This board is so instagramable (kinda like my Peanut Butter Football). When you have finished making your Nutella board, you must take some Instagram photos of it! 

Ingredients Needed for a Football Board

  • Nutella– this is the delicious base of the treat – you could also use chocolate frosting
  • White frosting- to decorate the the football (use a can or my buttercream recipe)
  • Assorted Dippers- you can use pretzels, strawberries, coconut flakes, etc.

FAQs

What is nutella?

Nutella is a sweetened cocoa hazelnut spread. 

Can I use frosting instead?

Yes, you can! 

Why do you use parchment paper?

The parchment paper helps you spread the Nutella in your desired shape. It’s kind of like coloring in the lines.
Now you have a football board made out of Nutella!
