Nutella Powder Tartlets

Motivation
I wanted to play around with the powderfication texture technique I've read about.   Dawn suggested placing Nutella powder into little tartlet shells.  For variety we prepared the tartlets three ways.

Ingredients
Maltodextrin
Nutella
Tartlet Shells
Maple Syrup
Cacao Nibs

Method
Combine Nutella and maltodextrin.  Blend in food processor until thoroughly incorporated.  Spoon into tarlet shells.  Drizzle maple syrup over one tartlet.  Sprinkle cacao nibs over another tartlet.  Serve third tartlet as is.

Verdict
As a texture experiment it was an interesting light and feathery powder.  Taste-wise it was good, but there was definitely and element missing.  I thought the maple syrup tartlet was the clear winner.  Dawn filled a spare tartlet shell with actual Nutella paste then added the powder as a topping and reported it was the most interesting and tasty of all.

The next night I repeated the powderfication process with peanut butter then mixed the resulting peanut butter powder with the remaining Nutella powder to make a Reese's peanut butter poweder.  This would make an interesting topping or garnish.
