A sweet & decadent chocolate hazelnut ganache filled into a sweet and crunchy graham cracker crust. A great dessert for the holiday season or any time you are looking for a no bake option. This easy dessert recipe doesn't require any homemade crusts from scratch... start with cooking the chocolate ganache on the stove for only 5 minutes and adding to an easy store-bought crust - voila! The only downside is that once you make this, your family and friends will never let a holiday go by without requesting it.
-If you aren't a Nutella fan or have a nut allergy, this can be made with a regular chocolate ganache recipe as well.
