My tuesday morning culinary disaster

Afternoon everyone! I'm not getting up to much today apart from a couple of job interviews this afternoon, so this morning I decided I'd treat myself to a special breakfast: pancakes for one!

I spent a bit of time researching yummy things I could put in them, and decided on putting a bit of Nutella in them to get chocolate pancakes - how good does that sound?!

Anyway, I got all the ingredients out, and I had my recipe ready. GAME ON, LET'S MAKE PANCAKES!

It all started well, and I mixed all the ingredients together - apart from the nutella, I was planning to add that last minute.

I went over to the stove and melted the butter in the pancake pan, as usual.

This is where the first bit went a little wrong.. I decided it would be great to melt some nutella in the pan with the butter to get a sort of chocolatey outside to the pancake.
Hence the next photo.

Let's just say that the pan didn't react to well to the chocolate, and had a bit of a meltdown (hah i'm so punny!)

I ploughed on regardless, and just turned the extractor fan up a bit. I added more nutella to the mix and mixed it up - I have to admit, it looked lush!

Anyway, to cut to the chase as soon as I put the lovely mixture in my pan (a ladleful, as usual), it stuck. Fast. I had to quickly try and save it, but before I knew it, the chocolate butter had solidified, and the whole pancake had all mushed up.

Hahahah, have you ever seen such a good looking pancake?!
I tried the second ladleful and it came out a little better, so I smothered it in syrup and wolfed it down anyway (I was pretty hungry by this time).
I have to say, as bad as it looks, they were actually not that bad tasting - except the burnt to a crisp parts, I avoided those...

So much for my plan to write you all a nice food blog post - maybe this is why I should stick to beauty, cooking's obviously not my thing ;)

Oh well!
Liv :)
