What you will need for this Easy, 2 Ingredient Nutella Mousse Recipe

Good Quality, Plain Greek Yogurt

The base of this recipe is the yogurt so you want to pick one that is high in protein (I look for one above 15g per serving) and has no added sugar. The Nutella will add sugar and sweetness to the dish so we want to avoid any more added sugars than that. You can choose a low fat yogurt or whole milk, I have found that both work well for this recipe, but a whole milk with give it a thicker, creamier consistency.

Nutella

Nutella has that sweet, chocolatey, nuttiness that is so irresistable! Just a tablespoon can sweeten up the yogurt and makes this treat wonderfully decadent. If you wanted to add even more protein you could mix in a tablespoon of nut butter too to punch up the nutty flavor.

Toppings

While toppings are optional for this dish they had a nice bit of texture to the creaminess of the yogurt. I like adding chopped hazelnuts and dark chocolate chunks to play off the falvors of the Nutella, but you could also add fruit like strawberries, a crunchy, salty snack like crushed pretzels, or some crumbled up some gluten free cookies. The toppings make it feel more like a fun and decadent dessert instead of just a simple snack!
