Chocolate Hazelnut Dessert Cups

Prep Time 30 minutes
Yield: 28 2-oz cups
Chocolate hazelnut dessert cups are an easy, no bake recipe! Chocolate hazelnut cookie crust, topped with chocolate hazelnut cream, and chocolate ganache.

Equipment

  • 28-2 oz. plastic cups with lids
  • Electric hand mixer

Ingredients 

  • 2 cups crushed chocolate hazelnut sandwich cookies
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream
  • ¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • additional chocolate hazelnut sandwich cookie crumbs

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine chocolate hazelnut sandwich cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix to combine.
  • Portion the crumbs into 28 2-ounce plastic cups using a small cookie scoop or spoon. Use one of the plastic cups to press the crumbs into the bottom of the cup.
  • In another mixing bowl, combine room temperature cream cheese and granulated sugar. Cream together on medium speed with an electric hand mixer until combined and smooth.
  • Add in vanilla extract and chocolate hazelnut spread and continue to mix.
  • Pour in heavy cream and whip on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
  • Fill a piping bag with the chocolate hazelnut cream. Pipe the mixture into the cups until about 3/4 full.
  • To make the chocolate ganache drizzle, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30 second intervals. Mix until smooth. Transfer to a squeeze bottle or piping bag.
  • Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the chocolate hazelnut cream. Sprinkle with additional chocolate hazelnut cookie crumbs.
  • Seal the cups with a lid and chill. The cups can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Notes

Chocolate hazelnut dessert cups should be kept chilled. They can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
 
 
If you prefer not to use plastic cups, you could also make the cups using cupcake liners or make the recipe in an 8×8 baking pan.
