Nutella. That is it. Oh, you want more? Usually Nutella is enough to stop me in my tracks.
Okay, I’ll add a little more. I have been meaning to perfect a shortbread cookie recipe but then Christmas baking put that on hold for a bit. But Sunday night rolled around and I made myself a batch of shortbread cookies. And then had the brilliant idea to make a little shortbread cookie sandwich with Nutella in the middle. “Not just a hat rack my friend.” (classic Joey)
Shortbread is very simple, not many ingredients but has a big buttery flavor. Paired with the rich Nutella filling makes this one indulgent cookie. I love Nutella, but Dave is not a huge fan. I know, what a weirdo, right? So he opted for just the plain shortbread and was pretty darn happy as well.
Give these a try and let me know what you think! Are you guys on team Nutella?

Lucky Charms Cereal Milk Latte
This Lucky Charms Latte tastes like a bowl of Lucky Charms in latte form- creamy cereal milk, bold espresso, and a dreamy marshmallow cold foam on top.
Ingredients
Cereal Milk
8 ounces Hiland Dairy Milk (1 cup)
1 cup Lucky Charms Cereal
1–2 shots espresso (or 8 ounces cold brew or regular coffee)
Spoonful of Marshmallow Creme
Ice
Cold Foam
¾ cup Hiland heavy cream or half & half
1/2 cup Lucky Charms Marshmallows
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Cereal Milk– In a jar or glass, add the 1 cup of milk and 1 cup Lucky charms cereal. Mix together until cereal is coated then seal with lid or saran wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
-
Cold Foam– In a jar or glass, add the 3/4 cup heavy cream or half & half with 1/2 cup Lucky Charms Marshmallows. Mix together until marshmallows are coated then seal with lid or saran wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
-
To assemble Latte– In a small glass, place a spoonful of Marshmallow Creme/Fluff in the glass. Brew 1-2 shots of espresso (or coffee of choice) over the marshmallow creme. Set aside to cool slightly.
-
Strain the milk/cereal mixture so you are just left with the yummy milk. Do the same for the heavy cream mixture.
-
In a separate glass, fill with ice. Pour ¼- ½ cup cup of the cereal milk over the ice. Next, pour the espresso over the milk.
-
Cold foam- in a small glass, add ¼ cup cereal milk heavy cream plus 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Use a handheld frother to mix until the cold foam is thicker and frothy. (you can also use a standard frother)
-
Gently pour the cold foam over the latte. Top with extra Lucky Charms Marshmallows. Grab a straw, stir just a bit and enjoy!
Notes
– Soak longer for a stronger flavor. Overnight gives the deepest cereal flavor.
– Adjust espresso to taste. Two shots per latte is perfect for me, but add more or less for whatever you love
– Make it hot. Warm the cereal milk gently before adding espresso and foam.
– Use your favorite dairy-free milk and dairy-free cream alternative for the foam. (Hiland has a new one that is great!)
