No Bake Nutella Cream Pie With Chocolate Crust Recipe

By Peanut Palate

🔪Prep Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

For the Crust

½ cup Medjool dates pitted

9 tbsp almond flour

1½ tbsp cacao powder

¼ tsp vanilla extract

pinch pink salt

For the Filling

⅓ cup coconut cream

½ cup vegan semisweet chocolate chips melted

¼ cup hazelnut butter

¼ tsp vanilla extract

pinch pink salt

For the Topping

¼ cup toasted hazelnuts skins removed, chopped

Instructions

1Grease the bottom and sides of the springform cake tray with vegan butter, refined coconut oil or another neutral oil or vegan butter of choice.

2Blend together all crust ingredients until a dough forms. You may have to stop the food processor and scrape it down as necessary to help the blending process.

3Press the crust evenly down into the pan.

4Add the semisweet chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on 20 second intervals, stopping and stirring in between, until melted.

5Now blend together all filling ingredients, including the melted chocolate, until a creamy mixture forms.

6Pour this mixture over top of the crust, using a rubber spatula to evenly spread it around as needed.

7To toast the hazelnuts, add them to a small saucepan over low heat.

8Stir them around for 1-2 minutes, until they start to toast. They will burn quickly, so keep an eye on them.

9You can taste test the to check if they are toasted – the hazelnut flavor will be much stronger than the raw nut.

10Turn off the heat and add the hazelnuts into a paper towel or a cloth. Rub them in the cloth to remove the skins.

11Once the skins are removed as much as possible, press them down into the top of the pie to cover it completely with hazelnuts.

12Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least one hour to set.

13Once set, remove it from the fridge. Slowly remove the sides of the pan, making sure the pie is not stuck to the sides of the cake pan.

14Use a pizza cutter or a sharp knife to cut the pie into 6 slices. Enjoy!

Earth of Maria

I’ve never been good at introductions because when they’re needed, I seem to forget every single interesting thing about myself. But I guess we’ll start with the basics. My name is Maria, and I am a twenty year old student from England. I study history at the University of Oxford and live in Brighton, but I was born in Russia and moved to the UK around ten years ago. I’m a vegan foodie (as you can probably tell by this blog), a lover of long walks and somewhere awkwardly between extrovert and introvert. Veganism and healthy eating are a huge part of my life, given that both have helped me overcome an unhealthy relationship with food. Finding balance took a lot of time and patience. But, as with many things in life, hard work proved 110% worth it! Whenever I’m not in the kitchen or working in my room, you’ll often find me at the gym, or at the grocery store looking for inspo for my next recipe.
