Ingredients
  

  • 8.5 oz cornflakes
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 4 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 7 oz hazelnuts
  • 1.5 cups whipped cream
  • 18 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 6 oz dark chocolate
  • 4 tbsp whipping cream
  • 8 Ferrero Rochers

Instructions
 

  • Crush up the cornflakes (it's best to do so with a mixer). Add the melted butter and cocoa powder one after the other and mix. Add the mixture to a cake springform pan, flatten it out, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Crush up the hazelnuts and mix them with the whipping cream and cream cheese. Then add the vanilla extract and sugar before mixing again.
  • Place the dark chocolate in a preheated glass bowl. Add the whipping cream and stir until the chocolate has melted.
  • Spread a layer of the hazelnut and cream cheese mix onto the base. Then add the chocolate sauce as the top layer.
  • Place the Ferrero Rochers on top for the finishing touch and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
