No Bake Ferrero Rocher Cheesecake

Nutella. Ferrero Rocher. Hazelnuts. Zero baking involved. Could this dessert be any more perfect?

Well, yes, probably, you do still have to wait a few hours for the cheesecake to set before you gorge yourself. I suggest using that time to come to terms with the early onset diabetes you'll probably get from eating this (entire) cheesecake.

What you will need:

Crust -

- 2 cups of Graham Cracker crumbs
- 4 oz melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Cheesecake -

- 3 (8 oz) packages of cream cheese, softened.
- 1 cup of sour cream.
- 1 tsp vanilla extract.
- 1/2 cup of sifted powdered (icing) sugar.
- 2 tbs of Kahlua or Frangelico (optional but recommended)
- 6 oz of Nutella.
- 1 tsp salt.

Topping -

- 1/2 cup chopped roasted hazelnuts.
- 8 Ferrero Rocher chocolates.
- 4 oz milk chocolate
- 4 oz Nutella

What to do:

Crust:

- Line a spring-form cake pan with wax/parchment paper.
- Combine the Graham Cracker crumbs with melted butter and vanilla extract.
- Press into the pan and allow to set in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Cheesecake:

- Combine cream cheese and sour cream with sugar, beat until light and fluffy.
- Add salt, vanilla extract and Kahlua.
- Spread half of the cheesecake mixture on top of the set crust, spoon the Nutella over it and top with the rest of the cheesecake mix.
- Use a skewer to mix the Nutella throughout your cheesecake, allow to set in the fridge for 3-4 hours.

Topping:

- Melt milk chocolate and Nutella together, spoon over the cheesecake.
- Top with chopped hazelnuts and Ferrero Rocher chocolates.
- Allow to sit in the fridge for about an hour to allow the chocolate to set. Slice and serve!
