- 1 vial rum flavoring for cream

Prepare the Biscuit Base
Crush the chocolate biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter until well combined.
Line the base of a 20 cm round cake tin with baking paper.
Press half of the biscuit mixture evenly into the bottom to form the base.
Place the tin in the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes to set.
Prepare the Coffee Cream
Dissolve the instant coffee in the fresh cream by stirring until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the mascarpone, icing sugar, and rum flavoring.
Gradually add the coffee-flavored cream to the mascarpone mixture.
Using an electric whisk, beat the mixture until it becomes firm and creamy.
Assemble the Cheesecake
Remove the chilled biscuit base from the fridge.
Pour half of the mascarpone coffee cream over the base and smooth it out with a spatula.
Add dollops of Nutella on top of the cream layer, swirling it slightly into the cream.
Add the remaining coffee cream on top and spread it evenly.
Finally, sprinkle the reserved biscuit crumbs over the top to create a crumbly topping.
Decorate and Chill
Drizzle Nutella over the top of the cheesecake for decoration and garnish with coffee beans (optional).
Let the cheesecake rest in the fridge for at least a few hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set fully.
- Ensure the coffee is fully dissolved in the cream before mixing to avoid lumps.
- Chilling the cheesecake overnight helps it set properly and enhances the flavors.
