I got a kick out of this. Thought maybe someone else would too.

We are going to an impromptu cul-de sac dinner party tonight and I drew the "make dessert" card. I thought this would be a good time to try out the new Warm Chocolate Hazelnut Cake made in the Rice Cooker. :) Anyway... I just got back from making a grocery run - had to go to 3 different stores because they were either OUT of Nutella or hazelnuts!! :eek: And when I did find it there was only 2 jars left!! Just out of curiosity I went to the cake mix aisle and sure enough, there was a big dent in the Devil's Food spot! :p

Hummm...wonder what the consultants in my area are making at their shows!!! :p

Chuckles & Grins,

Lee Anne
 
Wait'll you get to your party and there are 27 people there with the same dessert!

Haha, that's hilarious! I can just imagine the chaos in the grocery stores as everyone rushes to get their hands on Nutella and hazelnuts for this recipe. Good luck with your dessert, I'm sure it will be a hit at the dinner party! And who knows, maybe the consultants in your area are also planning to make this cake at their shows. Great minds think alike! Thanks for sharing, Lee Anne.
