How to make no bake dessert lasagna
Use an 8x8 pan and spread some thawed cool whip on the bottom.
Add some crispy Cinnamon Pebbles on top of the whipped topping.
Top the Cinnamon Pebbles with melted chocolate hazelnut spread. I will warn you not to melt the spread too long or it will turn hard and be unusable. I speak from experience! Just heat it on the stove enough for it to be loosened and able to pour.
Cover the chocolate hazelnut spread with another layer of the thawed whipped topping and add some graham crackers.
Then add a layer of peanut butter, because peanut butter just makes everything better.
Top with another layer of whipped topping and add a generous helping of Cinnamon Pebbles for some added crunch and cinnamon flavor.
Freeze this for 4 hours to allow it to firm up.
You will need a good knife to cut through the frozen dessert lasagna. Check out those layers! Your family will be so thrilled when you dish this up!
This peanut butter lasagna is creamy, crunchy, chocolaty and nutty. The mixture of these ingredients is just delightful! My family now asks me to make it all the time and it's so simple to prepare, that I do.

I have a potluck at work this weekend and I am in charge of dessert. I was not sure about what to make, because I am tired of the same old recipes. Now I know what I will be making, The recipe looks yummy but also easy to prepare and I know my coworkers will enjoy this. Would have never thought about using a cereal for something like this. very clever.

I enjoy eating cocoa pebbles for breakfast. I can't imagine just how tasty this dessert is with the pebbles. I am not sure how I'll like it with hazelnut but I'm willing to give it a try.
