Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups crushed chocolate cookies
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ½ cup chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup toasted hazelnuts, chopped
For Garnish (Optional):
- Chocolate shavings
- Additional toasted hazelnuts
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, mix the crushed chocolate cookies with melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust. Refrigerate while making the filling.
- Make the Filling: Beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar, then blend in the chocolate hazelnut spread and vanilla extract until creamy.
- Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Add the Hazelnuts: Stir in the chopped toasted hazelnuts for a delicious crunch.
- Assemble & Chill: Pour the filling over the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight for the best texture).
- Serve & Enjoy: Once set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with chocolate shavings and extra hazelnuts if desired. Slice and serve!
