  • For the cookie base, in a bowl mix the ground cookies with the ground walnuts, cinnamon, and butter until forming a dough. Pour the mixture into a cake mold, using a spoon to create an even base. Refrigerate.
  • For the apple compote, heat a small pot over low heat with the butter; once melted, add the apples, sugar, and lemon juice and cook until soft. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and apple juice, cook for 10 more minutes, and let cool.
  • Blend the compote with the apple puree and the gelatin, pour over the cookie base, and refrigerate until set.
  • For the cheesecake, using a mixer, beat the heavy cream until it doubles in volume and add the powdered sugar, the condensed milk in a thin stream, the cream cheese, and the vanilla extract. When you have a smooth and fluffy mixture, gradually add the tempered gelatin while mixing until fully incorporated.
  • Pour the cheesecake over the apple layer and smooth with a spatula. Refrigerate until set.
  • For the dulce de leche layer, using a mixer, beat the cream until it doubles in volume, add the cream cheese and dulce de leche, and continue beating until you obtain a homogeneous and creamy mixture. Incorporate the gelatin in a thin stream, pour the mixture over the cheesecake, smooth with a spatula, and refrigerate until set.
  • Unmold the cake and cover with dulce de leche, decorate with whipped cream rosettes and chopped walnuts. Serve and enjoy.
