- Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture using a spatula. Fold until all ingredients are completely incorporated.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and arrange fruit or dippers of choice around the dip. Skewer small berries on toothpicks. Enjoy!

Notes
Note 1: To soften cream cheese, remove the cardboard box and the inner foil wrapper. Place in a microwave-safe bowl or on a plate and microwave for 15 seconds. Flip the block of cream cheese over and microwave for another 10-15 seconds or until softened. Time will vary depending on your microwave; just remember you want it softened not melted.
Note 2: I love to serve this dip with fresh fruit, graham crackers, and marshmallows!
Storage: This dip will last up to four days covered tightly in the fridge. If it starts to separate, just give it a quick stir to incorporate all the ingredients again.
