Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)
2 cups raspberries (1 pint)
Short bread cookies, sliced baguette or ladyfingers, for serving

Steps:

Beat the cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in a bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Spoon 1/4 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread each into two 12-ounce glass or plastic jars and smooth to make an even layer. Divide half of the cream cheese mixture between the 2 jars, then top each with a handful of raspberries. Repeat with the remaining chocolate-hazelnut spread, cream cheese mixture and raspberries. Serve with cookies or baguette slices, or cover the jars with lids and pack them to go. (The spread can be made the night before; cover, refrigerate and return to room temperature before serving.)

This salad is best served chilled. Make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
You can also add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to each serving.
