Years ago, a friend gave me a recipe for chocolate peanut treats that didn't require baking. I thought it was a quick and clever way to whip up a batch of sweet snacks without heating up the kitchen, and I started making different variations. This one includes luscious Nutella and crunchy hazelnuts. Yum! —Lisa Speer, Palm Beach, Florida

Ingredients

  • 1 carton (8 ounces) spreadable cream cheese
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 1/2 cup Nutella
  • 2-1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup finely chopped hazelnuts, toasted
  • 1 cup whole hazelnuts, toasted

Directions

  1. Beat cream cheese, melted chocolate chips and Nutella until blended. Stir in graham cracker crumbs. Refrigerate until firm enough to roll, about 30 minutes.
  2. Shape mixture into 1-in. balls; roll in chopped hazelnuts. Make an indentation in the center of each with the end of a wooden spoon handle. Fill with a hazelnut. Store between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
