🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Prepare the springform pan (20-22 cm) by lining the bottom with parchment paper and lightly greasing the sides.

  2. 2

    Crush the cookies into fine crumbs. Mix them with the crushed hazelnuts and melted butter. Press firmly into the pan bottom and chill for 30 min.

  3. 3

    Whisk the cream cheese with the icing sugar until smooth. Incorporate the Nutella and hazelnut powder.

  4. 4

    Whip the very cold cream into stiff peaks. Fold one third into the Nutella mixture, then gently fold in the rest with a spatula.

  5. 5

    Optional gelatin: soak the leaves, squeeze, melt in a little hot cream and incorporate into the Nutella mixture before adding the whipped cream.

  6. 6

    Pour the filling onto the cold base. Smooth the top and tap to remove air bubbles.

  7. 7

    Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.

  8. 8

    Unmold by running a hot knife along the edges. Decorate with hazelnuts, chocolate shavings and a drizzle of melted Nutella.

Tips & Tricks
  • Use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps.
  • For perfect whipped cream, chill the bowl and beaters for 15 min before.
  • Press the base firmly so it doesn't crumble when slicing.
  • Gelatin ensures perfect hold, especially in summer or for a clean unmolding.
  • For impeccable slices, cut with a knife dipped in hot water and wiped between each cut.
  • Take the cheesecake out of the fridge 15 min before serving for optimal texture.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a raspberry coulis to balance the richness.
