How to make NUTELLA CHEESECAKE W/ Oranges:

    Crust:

    • Grind the hazelnuts together with the biscuits.
    • Add the melted butter and mix gently to obtain a crumbly dough.
    • Line a 20-22cm (7.8-8.7 inch) diameter pan with baking paper.
    • Place the biscuit mixture on the bottom of the tray and press down firmly with the bottom of a glass.
    • Bake the crust for 10 minutes at 160° Celsius (320° Fahrenheit)
    • Then reduce the heat to 150° C (300° F) and transfer the tray to a grill.
    • Prepare the filling.

    Filling:

    • Mix the Nutella with the cream and cream cheese until smooth.
    • Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well after each one.
    • Mix for no more than one minute.
    • Finally, add the vanilla, orange juice, and grated orange peel.
    • Mix gently.
    • Pour the mixture into the pan over the crust and level.
    • Place the cheesecake in a larger pan.
    • Pour hot water into the larger pan, halfway up the cheesecake.
    • Put the trays in the oven.
    • Bake the cheesecake for 45-50 minutes.
    • Turn off the heat and leave the cheesecake in the oven until completely cool, then refrigerate.

    Topping:

    • Hydrate the gelatin in 4 tablespoons of water.
    • Mix the orange juice with the sugar and place it in a saucepan on the heat.
    • Stir until it heats up and the sugar dissolves. Do not boil.
    • Turn off the heat and add the gelatin, stirring continuously until it dissolves.
    • Leave the juice to cool for half an hour then pour it over the cheesecake.
    • Refrigerate the cheesecake.
    • Melt the dark chocolate together with the cream in a bain marie.
    • Once the orange cream has hardened, place the chocolate on top of the cheesecake, starting from the center but without reaching the sides.
    • Place the cake back in the fridge.
    • Serve the orange Nutella cheesecake in generous and very tasty portions. Enjoy!
