Mini Nutella Cheese Cake

Mini Nutella Cheese Cake tastes like you baked all day. The secret is it’s made with simple ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry.

Recently I’ve been seeing more and more social media posts using Nutella. I’m a little slow coming to the table with my Mini Nutella Cheese Cake but it was worth the wait.

These bite-sized cakes are made with chocolate graham crackers, Cool Whip, cream cheese and Nutella; probably things you already have in your pantry. I thought about making one whole cheese cake, but I like little bites so I don’t feel so guilty about eating two.

The day I was making these, my son was visiting and he kept coming into the kitchen to see what I was making. When I was finally done, I gave him the bowl and the spatula I was using and it was like he was five years old again – he just dug in. The moral of that story is to make sure you have someone to lick the bowl and they will love you forever…that is, if you don’t eat it all yourself.
