Happy New Year's / Valentine's Day

Kung Hee Fat Choy! Today is Chinese New Year's. This year, Chinese New Year's coincides with Valentine's Day. My mom always prepares Chinese New Year's dinner. For dessert, I made some chocolate hazelnut won tons, which are the perfect way to marry the two occasions!

I'd like to say I thought of this myself, but I happened across this recipe this morning on Food Network as Giada DeLaurentis was preparing what she called "chocolate hazelnut ravioli", using won ton wrappers. You take some store bought won ton wrappers, fill with Nutella, and fry in oil. When it comes out, you sprinkle a little bit of confectioner's sugar and top with a candied mint. Yum!!
