Ingredients

  • 1 cup Nutella choc-hazelnut spread
  • 250 g mascarpone
  • ¼ teaspoon instant coffee
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla paste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place approx ¼ cup of the mascarpone (250g total) in a bowl, then add the instant coffee (¼ tsp) to the mascarpone and mix to blend well (see notes).
  2. Then add remaining mascarpone and mix to incorporate. Mix in vanilla paste (½ tsp).
  3. Finally, add nutella (1 cup) and mix well to combine.
  4. Spoon into serving dishes (leave off raspberries) and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  5. Top with fresh raspberries to serve.

Notes

  • You could make this recipe up to 2 days ahead - just spoon it into the serving dishes, cover and refrigerate until you want to use it. Then top it with the raspberries to serve.
  • A fancy serving suggestion would be to use stemless wine glasses to serve this in. I did this for a dinner party here at home recently. I piped the creme into the glasses for a neat finish, then refrigerated as usual and added the raspberries when I served it. Super impressive!
  • If your instant coffee has large granules like mine in the photo, I like to give it a good mix to start them dissolving using a small silicone spatula to "crush" the granules.
  • Mascarpone is best left in the fridge until you need to use it - especially if the weather is a bit hot.
  • You can substitute vanilla extract for the vanilla bean paste.
  • If you can't find mascarpone, you could substitute spreadable cream cheese (room temperature).
