Chocolate Hazelnut Mousse

I love food I particularly like desserts as is evident by my expanding waistline.

I dislike desserts that are complicated preferring a simple yet delicious dessert. Something I can put together quickly without a whole lot of preparation.

If you like chocolate, cream and hazelnuts here's something just for you. I found this online and had to share with you.

Ingredients

FOR THE MILK CHOCOLATE MOUSE
7 oz milk chocolate
¼ cup whole milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
¼ cup toasted blanched hazelnuts, finely chopped
1 cup 35% cream
pinch of salt
FOR THE HAZELNUT GANACHE
2 oz milk chocolate
¼ cup 35% cream
2 tbsp. Nutella

Instructions

FOR THE MILK CHOCOLATE MOUSE
Melt chocolate in a double boiler until completely smooth. Stir in vanilla, hazelnuts, and salt. Let cool to room temperature.
Beat your heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture until combined. Fold in the remaining whip cream until smooth, and divide evenly amongst serving cups.
FOR THE HAZELNUT GANACHE
Place chocolate in a medium sized heat-proof bowl and set aside.
In a small sauce pan, bring your cream to just a boil. Pour over chocolate and let sit for a minute. Then whisk until smooth. Add Nutella and rum and stir until combined.
Divide ganache evenly between serving cups. Garnish with hazelnuts and place in fridge for two hours
