Serves: Serves 8-10
Ingredients
- 280g Gluten Free digestive biscuits
- 5 tbsp soft unsalted butter
- 1 13-oz jar Nutella (at room temperature)
- ½ cup chopped toasted hazelnuts
- 1 lb (450 g) cream cheese (at room temperature)
- ½ cup confectioners’ sugar (sifted)
Instructions
- Break the gluten free digestives into the bowl of a processor, add the butter and 15 ml or 1 tablespoon of Nutella, and blitz until it starts to clump. Add 25g/3 tablespoons of the hazelnuts and continue to pulse until you have a damp, sandy mixture.
- Tip into a 23 cm/9-inch round springform and press into the base either using your hands or the back of a spoon. Place in the fridge to chill.
- Beat the cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar until smooth and then add the remaining Nutella to the cream cheese mixture, and continue beating until combined.
- Take the springform out of the fridge and carefully smooth the Nutella mixture over the base. Scatter the remaining chopped hazelnuts on top to cover and place the tin in the fridge for at least four hours or overnight.
- Serve straight from the fridge for best results.
