In a small bowl, slightly soften the Nutella by microwaving it for 10-15 seconds (optional, but makes it easier to handle). Scoop a small spoonful of Nutella and form small balls (about 1 teaspoon) with your hands. Set them aside.
Form the Balls:
Take a small amount of the mascarpone mixture (about a tablespoon) and flatten it slightly in the palm of your hand. Place a Nutella ball in the center and gently wrap the mascarpone mixture around the Nutella to form a ball. Be sure the Nutella is fully encased by the mascarpone.
Coat the Balls:
Roll each ball in crushed biscuits or graham crackers. Optionally, you can also roll them in chopped hazelnuts or chocolate sprinkles for extra texture and flavor.
Chill:
Place the dessert balls on a tray and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes to set.
Serve:
Once chilled and firm, your Nutella-filled mascarpone dessert balls are ready to serve! Enjoy them as a delicious treat for a special occasion or simply to satisfy your sweet tooth.
These dessert balls are indulgent yet easy to make and are sure to be a hit with anyone who loves the combination of Nutella and mascarpone.
