Ingredients Makes about 12-16 servings Crust • 250 g (about 30 oreo cookies), cream removed • 6 tbsp (80 g) unsalted butter, melted • Cream Cheese Filling • 35 oz (1 kg) cream cheese, room temperature • 3/4 cup (175g) heavy cream + 2 tbsp, cold • 2/3 cup (100g) Nutella • 1 cup (200g) sugar • 1 tbsp cornstarch • 2 tsp vanilla extract • 4 eggs, room temperature • Nutella Topping • 2/3 cup (100g) Nutella • 1/3 cup (80g) heavy cream Directions 1. Prepare the crust. Preheat oven to 350 F (180C). Remove the cream between oreo cookies and crush them using a food processor. Melt butter and pour over the crushed cookies. Process until evenly moistened. Press cookie mixture with the back of the spoon into the bottom of a 10-inch (26 cm) springform pan (with a removable base). Bake for 13-15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely. 2. Reduce oven temperature to 300 F (150C). 3. Prepare the cream cheese filling. In a bowl combine the sugar with cornstarch. 4. In a large bowl beat the cream cheese with 3/4 cup heavy cream until well combined and the mixture seems fluffy as the heavy cream has whipped a bit. (This is very important, because this is what makes possible creating the 2 layers effect.) Gradually add the sugar mixture and mix until creamy and smooth. Add vanilla extract and mix again until well combined. Add eggs one at a time until each egg is incorporated. 5. Reserve about 1/3 of cream cheese mixture in a separate bowl. Add Nutella and 2 tbsp of heavy cream over the reserved 1/3 of cream cheese mixture and mix well until incorporated. 6. Pour the white cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust. Carefully add Nutella mixture on top and use a rubber spatula to spread evenly. 7. Bake for 45-55 minutes on 300F (150C). Turn off the heat and leave it another hour in the oven. 8. Remove and run a sharp knife completely around the inside edge of the pan. Let it cool completely at room temperature. 9. Prepare the Nutella topping. Bring cream to a boil and pour over the Nutella. Mix well and spread evenly over the cheesecake. 10. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Decorate with some chopped hazelnuts before serving if desired. • •
