NUTELLA. Need we say more?

Just made this as a trial run for the Holidays. Maybe a little too bold for the Thanksgiving crowd...but definitely bustin' it out for Christmas!! Mmmmm...I am now naming this "HOLIDAY SOUP."

4 cups light cream
6 ounces sweet chocolate
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup Nutella
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped, for topping
1/2 cup flaked, toasted hazelnuts, for topping

Combine cream, chocolate, sugar and Nutella in saucepan over medium heat, stirring until chocolate and Nutella have melted. Thoroughly beat egg yolks. Stir in 1/2 cup of chocolate soup mixture into egg yolks, then whisk egg yolk mixture into soup. Simmer, stirring for 5 minutes. Serve hot or cold, garnished with whipped cream and nuts. (I liked it hot....) Dip anything you want in it...graham crackers, bananas, shortbread, chocolate chip cookies...pretty much anything already loaded in sugar and pure awfulness. INDULGE!
