I have recently seen a recipe for Yo-Yos on the internet where Nutella® was used for the filling.
Chef's notes
This recipe is copied from my younger sisters' year 8 Home Economics book from 1965. I remembered my Mother making them for us in the early 1950's, I saw the recipe in her cook book & somehow acquired the book.
