Hello blog. Much has happened since we last talked. I finished my junior year of high school, went to New York for a week, and am currently living in a cabin in the woods working at summer camp (of which I’m using my 15 minutes of internet time to post this)! Posts will be few and far between, but what’s new there ?
A few months ago I got a package in the mail from Peanut Butter & Co with their newest launch – Chocmeister hazelnut spread! Um yes. Chocolate. (giveaway at the bottom!)
I used the Chocmeister in this Strawberry Banana Chocolate French Toast. French toast is good, but French toast stuffed with fruit and chocolate? Amazing. I even was super fancy and bought a loaf from the bakery that I sliced myself. Gourmet. We had a little brunch party and everyone loved it. I topped mine with maple syrup but whipped cream or powdered sugar would work fabulously too!
I felt like it was something you’d get in a restaurant yet I made it at home – so easily! Mom liked it, grandpa liked it, and Olivia said it was the best French toast she’s ever had. It’s simple!
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 banana
- strawberries
- 1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
- crushed peanuts, if desired
- 8 slices of bread
- Preheat skillet to medium heat. In a medium bowl mix eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Transfer to a shallow pan. Slice bread into about 3/4 inch thick pieces.
- Take two pieces of bread and open them up. Spread chocolate on one side then place sliced strawberries and bananas on the piece. Cover with the other piece and dunk into the egg mixture then flip it over and dunk the other side (not the inside!).
- Place onto the heated buttered griddle and sprinkle with crushed peanuts, if desired. Let cook for about five minutes then flip to the other side, being careful to keep it together. Let the other side get golden brown and serve, cutting it in half and sprinkling with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or maple syrup.

I think the Chocmeister would make an excellent chocolate cake and chocolate buttercream. I’m sure some of it would be eaten right off a spoon, maybe with a bit of peanut butter or M & M’s!

Damn, I literally just left North America two days ago!! If I’d known, I would have definitely hunted down a jar of this before flying back to Australia as it will be impossible to find here. I think this would go amazingly well in a banana smoothie or swirled through a cheescake. Chocolate and hazelnuts – you can’t go wrong!

Besides topping French toast this would be delicious in protein oat balls!

When I was little growing up in England, I remember a spread with these similar flavors. But now that I’ve seen this I am going to have to snatch it up. I used to pair if with simple buttered toast.
Kit says
I would put Chocomeister in my overnight oats!
Susan P. says
I would use it as a spread for toast, in a sandwich with jam and as an ingredient in cookies.

I would use it to make chocolate peanut covered balls for an afternoon healthy snack.
Kaitlyn says
I would use Chocmeister to mix in my popcorn, to swirl into my banana bread, and to drizzle on my pancakes π
Donna F. says
I would add a scoop to smoothies!

This is some good stuff. I swear the Yooper girl didn’t tell me to post this.
