Ingredients
  

2 Weetabix biscuits

1 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk)

2 tablespoons chocolate hazelnut spread (like Nutella)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to your desired level of sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for added creaminess)

1/4 cup crushed hazelnuts (for topping)

Fresh berries (e.g., raspberries or strawberries, for garnish)

Dark chocolate shavings (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: Begin by crumbling the Weetabix biscuits into small, bite-sized pieces. This will create a delightful crunch at the base of your jars.

    Mix the Liquid Ingredients: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the almond milk, chocolate hazelnut spread, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk the mixture until all ingredients are thoroughly blended. If you choose to add Greek yogurt, incorporate it at this step and mix until smooth and creamy.

      Layer the Ingredients: Grab your mason jars or any container of your choice, and start layering. Begin with a generous layer of the crumbled Weetabix at the bottom. Next, add a layer of the chocolate hazelnut mixture. Continue to layer the crumbled biscuit and chocolate mixture until you’ve used all your ingredients, finishing with a layer of the chocolate mixture on top.

        Chill Overnight: Seal the jars with their lids or cover them tightly with plastic wrap. Place them in the refrigerator and let them chill overnight, or at least for 4 hours. This time allows the Weetabix to absorb the liquid and soften, creating a deliciously creamy texture.

          Serve and Garnish: When you’re ready to indulge, remove the jars from the refrigerator. Top each jar with a sprinkle of crushed hazelnuts, a handful of fresh berries, and a few dark chocolate shavings for an extra touch of decadence.

            Enjoy: Grab a spoon, scoop into your delightful Chocolate Hazelnut Overnight Weetabix Jars, and savor a delicious breakfast or dessert that’s both satisfying and nourishing!
