  3. Pour over ice cream and watch the magic happen!

Can you heat Nutella?

You can quickly melt Nutella by scooping it into a bowl and microwaving it gently. Or if you'd like to melt a larger amount, simply put the jar of Nutella into a bowl of hot water. If you only need a little Nutella for spreading, heat a metal knife or spoon then use it to scrape up the softened Nutella.

At room temperature, the nut spread is more fluid and spreadable. When kept in the fridge, the chilly temperature will cause the product to harden so the texture is no longer spreadable. Once Nutella is kept in the fridge, you shouldn't return it to the pantry anymore.
