I know. It says three ingredients in the title but there seems to be a lot more. Let me explain it: for the Nutella mousse itself you only need here ingredients and no more than 5 minutes to make. The rest is just fuss. Topping is optional and of course variable according to your taste and mood.

This time I made a quick berry jam and caramelized nuts in order to have something sour and something crunchy to balance the smoothness of the mousse.

Pour the sugar in a saucepan and let it caramelize on medium heat. Many different things are said about the tricks of caramel making. The best advise I ever got was not to stir it until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Pour the caramel onto a piece of parchment paper. Let it cool, then break it up in a mortar or using a food processor, until it's like powder.

Caramelized Nuts

Spread the nuts on a parchment paper (you can use the same as for pouring he caramel on), cover them with the caramel powder put it into the preheated oven (180 Celsius) for about 7-10 minutes till the nuts are incorporated into the melted caramel. Cut it into pieces. Done! ✅

Enjoy!
