How I make it

Phyllo cups

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Lay one phyllo sheet on the counter and brush with melted butter. Top with another sheet and brush again, until you have 4 layers.

  3. Cut the stack into 6 pieces. Repeat with the remaining 4 sheets for 12 pieces in all.

  4. Press each piece into a muffin cup so the edges stick up above the rim.

  5. Bake for about 9 minutes, until golden. Cool on a rack.

Mousse and assembly

  1. Heat the white chocolate with 1/4 cup of the cream until melted. Cool to lukewarm and stir in the hazelnuts.

  2. Whip the rest of the cream and gently fold it into the chocolate in two additions.

  3. Chill for about 1 hour.

  4. Spoon 2 teaspoons of Nutella into each phyllo cup and top with the mousse.

  5. Garnish with grated bittersweet chocolate.
