Instructions
For the cookie crust
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Add the chocolate wafer cookies to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse a few more times until evenly moistened.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a 9 inch deep dish pie plate. Using your fingers or a flat-bottomed cup measure, press the crumbs evenly into the bottom of the pan and up the sides, all the way to the top.
- Bake for 10 minutes, remove and allow to cool completely.
For the Nutella filling
- Wipe or rinse out your food processor, and add the cream cheese, Nutella, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt to the bowl. Process until smooth. Note: your cream cheese doesn't have to be room temperature if you are using a food processor here, but if you are using beaters or a stand mixer, you will want it to be softened so that you don't get any lumps.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Add the whipped cream to the Nutella mixture, starting with a little bit to loosen it up, and fold together until there are no streaks.
- Pour the Nutella filling into the cooled pie crust, and smooth out the top.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight. Note: the texture is on the soft side, so do make sure your pie is thoroughly chilled before slicing and serving.
For the topping
- Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form.
- Pile the whipped cream on top of the chilled pie, and sprinkle with the chopped hazelnuts. Serve chilled.
Notes
- To toast hazelnuts, spread them on a dry baking sheet and toast in a 350F oven for about 10 minutes.
