Easy Frozen Ferrero Rocher Cake with Just 5 Ingredients

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Texas chapter.

One thing Argentines cannot be beaten at is baking. Their cakes are rich, decadent and perfectly balance flavors and textures. Their pastries go unchallenged, with the right amount of crispiness, moisture and a sweet filling to enhance flavor. I usually refer to Inutilisimas to learn how to make Argentinian sweets like this frozen Ferrero Rocher cake. It only takes a few steps to turn ingredients in your pantry into a cake with the flavor and texture of a Ferrero Rocher. Sure, it’s summer bod time, but a little indulgence never hurt anyone, right?

    Blend the chocolate cookies and hazelnuts together to make the crust. Combine with the melted butter.

    #SpoonTip: The choice of cookies is completely up to you — Oreo tops, chocolate wafers, Nilla wafers or even biscotti!

    Pat the crust mixture onto a springform pan. Place in freezer while you make the filling.

    Beat the heavy whipping cream in a medium mixing bowl until it begins to stiffen. You want to beat it to a point where it’s not as stiff as whipped cream, but stiff enough so that it has some consistency.

    Fold in the nutella until completely combined.

I was born in Argentina, have an Armenian background, and have been cooking for as long as I can remember. Currently, I attend the University of Texas at Austin where I am pursuing a degree in accounting, yet I do not let school get in the way of my love for food and the kitchen!
