Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Gelatin

In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of boiling water with 2.5 teaspoons of gelatin powder. Stir with a spoon until all the gelatin is completely dissolved.

Step 2: Melt Nutella and Cream

In a saucepan, pour 800 ml of cream (whipping cream or any preferred cream). Add 500 grams of Nutella chocolate hazelnut spread to the cream. Place the saucepan over a low to medium heat.

Step 3: Stir Until Smooth

Gently stir the cream and Nutella mixture until the Nutella has completely melted and combined with the cream, resulting in a nice and smooth consistency. Do not boil the mixture.

Step 4: Add Gelatin Mixture

Once the cream and Nutella mixture is smooth, add the dissolved gelatin mixture to the saucepan. Stir thoroughly until the gelatin is fully incorporated and everything is smooth.

Step 5: Pour and Chill

Carefully pour the warm chocolate mixture into individual serving glasses. The recipe yields about 4 generous portions. Place the glasses into the fridge for approximately to allow the dessert to set completely.

Step 6: Decorate and Serve

Once set, decorate the Nutella dessert cups as desired. The chef topped them with whipped cream and dusted them with cocoa powder. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Pro Tips

• Serve chilled with a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder for an extra touch of indulgence.
