Some days call for a quick yet no fuss desserts,this one is for such days :) All you need is: 1 packet of whip cream mix 2-3 digestive biscuits(I use McVities always!)  2 tbsp Nutella 1 tsp drinking chocolate powder(I say this because I used Cadbury's drinking chocolate else use cocoa and sugar)(optional) Patience! Make the whip cream as per instructions on the box.Fold in Nutella. Crush digestive biscuits using a rolling pin. Take a glass or a tall bowl and start layering alternatively between digestive biscuits and Nutella/whip cream mixture.Make sure the digestive biscuit is the last layer at the top.Sprinkle the chocolate powder on top if you want an extra choco zing.Refrigerate this for about 20 mins,this is where patience comes of great use!Enjoy!
