Preheat oven to 350 F.

Line the baking sheet (16 by 12 inch) with aluminum foil.

Spray with baking spray and set aside.

Bowl 1: Add dry ingredients

Sift flour, cocoa and baking powder.

To that mixture add the ground hazelnuts and stir all ingredients together.

What happen? You can’t see the flour. Like I said the boss is Hazelnuts.

Now, let’s mix eggs and sugar.

So, add to the mixing bowl eggs and sugar.

Mix on high speed for about 9 minutes or until tripled in volume.

Our next step is to combine dry and wet ingredients.

Using the spatula fold dry ingredients into the eggs, in 3 additions. (slowly)

SUPER IMPORTANT: Please, pay attention to this step.

Be very gently when mixing dry ingredients into the eggs mixture.

I will repeat again. Be sure the flour hazelnuts mixture is mixed or incorporated into the eggs mixture.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake at 350 F for about 15 to 17 minutes.

Use a toothpick to check if the cake is done.

Remove from the oven.

Cool it for about 2 to 3 hours.

While cake is resting, make the Nutella filling.

How to Make THE BEST Nutella Filling

Add cheese to the mixing bowl and mix until smooth.

Then transfer to the plate.

Using the same bowl mix the heavy cream for 2 minutes.

Then add cheese and mix until two ingredients are incorporated.

After that add Nutella and mix quickly. (for a minute or two)

Then add crushed Wafers and hazelnuts.

Stir all ingredients using your favorite spatula.

And you just made the best Nutella filling.

MAKING CHOCOLATE GLAZE FOR Best Ferrero Rocher Cake

Heat the cream until almost boiling.

Add chopped chocolate and corn syrup to the bowl.

Pour the heated cream over the chocolate and corn syrup mixture.

Let sit for 5 minutes.

Gently mix until smooth.

And yes, you just made the best chocolate glaze.

ASSEMBLY for Best Ferrero Rocher Cake

You can refrigerate the cake for a few hours. It will be easier to handle.

You need to cut 3 layers of the cake. The size is 9 by 5. (The leftovers will be used for recipe 2)

Place the first layer of the cake to a serving plate.

Add Nutella filling, second layer cake.

Then add Nutella filling and the third layer of the ferrero rocher cake.

Return to fridge until filling is set.

Note: At this point, I find it is important to chill the cake before continuing to help the Nutella filling firm up.

Pour the chocolate glaze over the best ferrero cake.

Decorate with shaved chocolate, Ferrero chocolate candies, ground hazelnuts, icing sugar.
