Nutella Latte Recipe: How to Make a Creamy Chocolate-Hazelnut Coffee

It’s here.

This is the easiest, most delicious way to make a Nutella latte at home.

Oh my.

After making one of these a few months ago, I wanted one every single morning.

Really — every morning.

I resisted the daily habit for a while — it felt like a slippery slope toward donuts and chocolate-covered snacks every afternoon. But with the holidays approaching, a Nutella latte might be the perfect little daily celebration throughout November and December.

Maybe brilliant. Maybe indulgent. Either way, it’s wonderful.

Honestly, this is embarrassingly simple.

• Place a scoop of Nutella in your mug.
• Pour hot espresso over it.
• Whisk until smooth and chocolatey.
• Fill the mug with steamed milk and foam.
• Sip and savor.

To elevate the drink, spread a little Nutella around the rim before pouring, and optionally finish with a light drizzle of balsamic glaze. If you enjoy a touch of tangy sweetness, the balsamic adds a surprising, delicious contrast. If not, double down on the Nutella — it’s still fantastic.

This recipe was created in collaboration with DeLallo, a favorite market and brand I love working with. We filmed a few dishes for their kitchen that were absolute dreams to make and taste.
