Instruction
base
Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and process until a dough forms, press into a baking paper lined round 8 inch/20cm tin (preferably springform). Place in the freezer to chill.
nougat cheesecake layer
Combine the ingredients in a blender (I use a vitamix) and blend on high until super smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. Set aside 2 cups of the mixture to be used for the chocolate layer, and pour the rest over the chilled base. Spread evenly and place in the freezer to chill until set on top (about an hour).
