Chocolate toasty rolls

First we had cheesy beanos, then it was the sublime fish finger sandwich. If you're looking for the serious cooking section of the food blog, this aint it. This is the latest in our series of crap comfort food. It comes with a chocolate twist and is the easiest to assemble of all. It's from Kim O'Donoghue, sent in from Surrey.

Can you do better? Suggested improvements, as always, below, and if you have a recipe you want to see published on the blog, send it in, with a picture, to food.blog@observer.co.uk.

Over to Ms O'Donoghue ...

Kim O'Donoghue's chocolate toasty rolls

The beauty of this 'dish' is not so much what it is, it's the way you eat it. It's simple, tasty, quick and just that little bit messy. The key to it is good bread, preferably white for extra guilt, and some very good quality hazelnut chocolate spread (personal preferences are Nutella or Green and Black's chocolate spread).

To make it

Toast your bread to your personal taste, spread with margarine or butter as you wish, then add a generous slathering of the chocolatey stuff - don't be stingy, go right to the edges of the slice of toast with it.

Sit down in your favourite chair, preferably with a good cup of tea. Eat away the two side and the bottom crust of the slice. Next, starting with the top crust, roll the rest of the slice down into a swiss roll type thing and much your way along it for maximum chocolatey flavour and satisfaction.

You'll want at least two slices of this, I promise.
