NUTELLA MOUSSE

Yes. This was incredible, so tasty, and so easy!

And it has oreos in it! I really enjoyed making this but my arm start to hurt from mixing (I’m a little weak…)

The ingredients are simple and easy accesible. So go out and get them and make this!

It is so worth it.

Mhmm this is actually called a cheesecake because of the cream cheese but I feel like its leaning more towards a mousse, so I renamed it!

I mean look at it in the glasses…. Thats mousse.

This was adapted from another blog: http://www.mybakingaddiction.com/no-bake-nutella-cheesecake-recipe/

Remember this is rich but so delightful.

Servings 6

MIX MELTED BUTTER WITH CRUSHED OREOS UNTIL COMBINED.
USING 6-8 SMALL RAMEKINS OR MINI CUPS PRESS CRUST MIXTURE DOWN WITH THE BACK OF A SPOON INTO THE BOTTOM OF EACH.
IN A STAND MIXER OR ELECTRIC MIXER AND LARGE BOWL COMBINE SOFTENED CREAM CHEESE AND NUTELLA. MIX UNTIL SMOOTH.
ADD IN THE VANILLA AND MIX SLIGHTLY. THEN USING A SPATULA OR LARGE WOODEN SPOON, FOLD IN THE 8 OZ OF COOLWHIP UNTIL THERE ARE NO STREAKS AND ALL IS MIXED TOGETHER.
TRANSFER MIXTURE TO A PIPING BAG OR BIG ZIPLOC BAG, CUT OFF THE TINY CORNER AND PIPE ON TOP OF THE OREO CRUST.

IN A SEPARATE BOWL COMBINE WHIPPING CREAM AND VANILLA WITH A WHISK ATTACHMENT USING A STAND MIXER OR ELECTRIC MIXER.
AFTER WHIPPING FOR 1 MINUTE, ADD IN POWDERED SUGAR AND KEEP WHIPPING UNTIL STIFF PEAKS FORM.
TRANSFER MIXTURE TO A PIPING BAG OR LARGE ZIPLOC BAG WITH A STAR PIPING TIP IN THE CORNER FIRST. CUT OFF AND PUSH STAR PIPING TIP THROUGH.
PIPE WHIPPED CREAM ON TOP OF THE MOUSSE.
LASTLY, SPRINKLE WITH CHOCOLATE SHAVINGS.

If desired, pipe the homemade whipped cream on top of these. Extra delectable with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings!

Eat up. I was only able to eat half of mine!!

I’m off to finish my other half :)
