Chocolate Hazelnut Dessert Cups for 4

Instructions:

1. Gently melt the ½ cup chopped dark chocolate and ⅓ cup chocolate hazelnut spread together in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
2. Set the chocolate mixture aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly until it is warm to the touch but not hot.
3. In a chilled bowl, combine 1 cup heavy whipping cream, 2 tbsp powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
4. Add one large spoonful of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture and stir vigorously to lighten the base.
5. Gently fold the remaining whipped cream into the chocolate using a rubber spatula in a figure-eight motion until no white streaks remain.
6. Spoon or pipe the mixture evenly into 4 dessert cups and smooth the tops with a knife.
7. Place the cups in the refrigerator to set for at least 1 hour.
8. Just before serving, press the ¼ cup chopped toasted hazelnuts into the top of each cup and add a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt.
