Hazelnut Cheesecake
A fresh dessert that doesn’t require baking! The cheesecake is the perfect dessert at the end of a meal, as a snack, or whenever we want something sweet, and it is also perfect as a cake if we need to celebrate an important event, a birthday, etc. This time I chose hazelnut flavor because after pistachio, it’s my favorite ☺️. A very simple dessert to prepare that we can make calmly the day before.
