Nutella Pudding is a rich, creamy dessert that blends the delicious flavors of chocolate and hazelnut in a smooth, velvety pudding. This no-bake treat is easy to prepare, perfect for make-ahead options, and can be topped with toasted hazelnuts and a sprinkle of sea salt for extra texture and flavor.

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ cup half-and-half
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chopped hazelnuts (for garnish)
  • Flaky sea salt (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Whisk the Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly whisk in the half-and-half, heavy cream, and egg yolks until smooth. Whisk in the milk and Nutella until mostly smooth.
  2. Cook the Pudding: Set the saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking constantly. Once boiling, continue whisking for about 2 minutes until the mixture thickens.
  3. Finish the Pudding: Remove from heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  4. Chill the Pudding: Pour the pudding into a large heatproof bowl. Refrigerate uncovered for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming. Once cool, cover and refrigerate for another 2 hours or overnight.
  5. Toast the Hazelnuts: In a nonstick skillet, toast the hazelnuts over medium-low heat, stirring constantly for about 4-5 minutes until fragrant. Set aside to cool.
  6. Serve: Spoon the pudding into serving bowls, top with toasted hazelnuts, and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • Toppings: Try topping your pudding with whipped cream, chocolate chips, crushed Oreos, or fresh berries for a fun twist.
  • Nut-Free: Skip the hazelnuts and top with another favorite, like mini chocolate chips or marshmallows.
  • Dairy-Free: Swap the heavy cream and half-and-half with coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Thicker Pudding: If you prefer a thicker pudding, add a little extra cornstarch and cook longer until it reaches the desired consistency.
