Ingredients

  • 1 (6 oz) 'ready crust' graham cracker crust
  • 1⅓ cups Nutella divided
  • 1 bar (8 oz) cream cheese softened
  • 1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip thawed
  • 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Spread 1/3 cup of Nutella into the bottom of the graham cracker crust.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and 1 cup of Nutella with an electric hand mixer until well mixed.
  • Fold in the thawed Cool Whip with a spatula. Evenly spread the mixture into the crust, smoothing out the top.
  • Top the pie with the enclosed plastic lid (from the store bought crust) and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
  • * If using the hazelnuts, chop them up small and sprinkle them onto the pie right before serving. You can also serve the pie as is, drizzle some warmed Nutella over each slice, and/or use whipped cream (homemade or from a spray can) to decorate the outside edges of the pie.

Notes

Serving Size : Calorie information is for 10 servings of this pie. It's a richer pie, so I always cut them smaller and that seems plenty for most people. 
Hazelnuts : For extra flavor try roasting the hazelnuts. Place the chopped hazelnuts into a skillet pan, over medium-low heat, and cook for about 5 minutes (stirring frequently) until the hazelnuts are darker in color and they smell nuttier & more fragrant. Roasting them brings out a nuttier flavor which pairs well with the smooth and creamy pie. This is totally optional. 
Cream Cheese : For best taste and texture use full-fat cream cheese in this recipe. Make sure it's softened to avoid lumps in the filling. Either leave it out at room temperature 1 hour prior to making the pie OR you can microwave it for about 25 seconds. You don't want it hot, just softened so it's easier to mix. 
Crust : For more chocolate flavor try using a chocolate graham cracker crust. You can also use a shortbread crust as well. These are all store-bought crusts that you will find in the baking aisle at the store.
