Nutella Cheesecake with Toasted Hazelnuts

The recipe has several advantages. One, the toasted and chopped hazelnuts that give each bite a pleasant crunchy texture. Another, there are no eggs in the recipe, so there's no need to bake. Just beat the cream cheese and sugar, and leave the rest to the freezer to later enjoy this delight.
