Chocolate hazelnut ice-cream cheesecake

Chocolate lovers' paradise: honey nut cornflakes pressed into a springform tin with chocolate hazelnut spread, then a thick layer of cream cheese folded through with the rest of the jars, frozen overnight and cut into slices. No baking, no water bath — just a bowl, a tin and the freezer.

Something sweet — chocolate lovers' paradise. Make it the night before, wrap it tightly and forget about it until thirty minutes before you cut. With thanks to BBC Good Food, July 2016.

  4. 04

    Smooth onto the cornflake base, wrap tightly in cling film and freeze overnight.

    Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before serving, or until you can cut it easily with a sharp knife.

    Serve in slices with hazelnuts sprinkled over.

    Will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.
