US - Metric

Instructions

  • CREAM CHEESE: In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides as needed. Once smooth, add in the Nutella and beat until combined.
  • WHIPPED CREAM: In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or a separate bowl with a hand mixer), whip the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt until it forms stiff peaks.
  • FOLD: Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture using a spatula. Fold until all ingredients are completely incorporated.
  • SERVE: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and arrange fruit (or dippers of choice) around the dip. Skewer small berries on toothpicks. Serve toothpicks alongside the dip. Enjoy!
  • STORAGE: This dip will last up to four days, covered tightly in the fridge. If it starts to separate, just give it a quick stir to incorporate all the ingredients again.

Notes

Note 1: Softening cream cheese: To soften cream cheese, remove the cardboard box and the inner foil wrapper. Place in a microwave-safe bowl or on a plate and microwave for 15 seconds. Flip the block of cream cheese over and microwave for another 10-15 seconds or until softened. (Time will vary depending on your microwave; just remember you want it softened not melted.)
