Homemade Nutella Peanut Butter Cups

Americans love their Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. And so do I! I decided to make my peanut butter cups a little more suitable for my taste buds and instead of using chocolate, I used Nutella (I love Nutella and probably use it too much). So these cups are gluten free Nutella peanut butter cups made straight out of my kitchen. These are so easy (yet a little messy) and super fun to make. Give them a shot!

• About 36 oz. (900g) of Nutella (I know, it's a ton)

Gluten Free Nutella Cheesecake Brownie Bites

My fiance has been begging me to make cheesecake and I finally caved in. Kind of. I had to add a little something to this cheesecake to make it pop and stand out. I decided to do a Gluten Free Nutella Cheesecake Brownie baked in a muffin pan. But, I made these guys miniature, so you can devour them in one big bite! I'd say I just made a lot of people's dreams come true. Your welcome. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Nutella Nutter Butters

Peanut butter is one of my favorite toppings. My dad used to eat peanut butter on his toast every morning and he got me to do the same (thanks dad!). I could easily just shove spoonfuls of it into my mouth, but I would rather bake with it. We all remember eating Nutter Butters as kids. I decided to try and make my own gluten free Nutter Butters. Instead of the peanut butter filling in the middle, I thought Nutella would taste a lot better (and I think I'm right!). You be the judge. Enjoy!
