Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse

Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse
1 3/4 cups cold 2% Milk  (I didn't have 2% so I used skim + some whipping cream)
1 pkg (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup Nutella
1 3/4 cups whipped topping (I whipped my own)
Additional Whipped Topping, optional.

Whisk milk and pudding mix in a large bowl for 2 minutes.  Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft set.  Whisk in Nutella until smooth.  Fold in whipped topping.  Serve with whipped topping on top, if desired.
