Contestant #2: Ferrero Rocher Cheesecake
Clumbsy Cookie posted this a few months ago and it certainly seems to be the new acme of deliciousness. Cheesecakes are my hands -down favorite kind of cakes, though making them tends to cause me the greatest amounts of stress. I'm not partial to this one's graham cracker crust (the boring yet popular standard), but at least there's cocoa powder mixed in. Ferrero Rochers and Baci are my two favorite Italian chocolates, and Nutella was a major staple of my diet whenever I visited Europe (and makes occasional, albeit dangerous, cameos in my cabinets here).
I fell off the hazelnut wagon a few years ago when I bought a huge bag of 'em at Trader Joe's and kind of OD'ed. The memory of hazelnut buter still makes me a little green. But I think this cake could revive my love for the hazelnut and send me spiraling into a birthday chocolate-Nutella-cheesecake dream state. My hippie party has suddenly gotten a little more psychedelic.
