No Bake Creamy Nutella Pie




Yesterday was my birthday! Usually this means spending an hour or so in the kitchen making my birthday cake. However this year I wanted to make something different from the traditional birthday cake, and being a Nutella lover I found this recipe on Pinterest that belongs to The Recipe Critic. In the original recipe they made the crust from scratch and they used 16 oz of cream cheese. However I decided not make the crust from scratch because this is a dessert that I wanted to have ready to go quickly. I also wanted to intensify the Nutella flavor so I decided to only use 8 oz of cream cheese. This version makes for a very quick and tasty preparation. Because I used less cream cheese the Nutella flavor was intensified, so it tasted awesome! This is a very simple and easy recipe. Hope you guys enjoy it. Until the next one!

Note: For this post I've included all the steps at the beginning of the recipe as well as under each picture. This is a trial to see if this helps make it easier for you guys to follow the recipe, so please let me know in the comments if you'd like this to become a regular thing.
