Ingredients to make Nutella cake and cookies:

- 1 package of Maria or Digestive biscuits (200g)

- For the filling:
- 395 grams of Nutella or another chocolate cream (1 medium jar)
- 500 grams of milk cream or liquid cream for desserts
How to make Nutella Cake and Cookies:
- Prepare the base of the cold Nutella cake by grinding the cookies in an electric chopper or mixer until you get a kind of coarse sand (it is not necessary to turn them into fine flour).
- Then add the margarine or butter and mix with your hands until you get a moist dough.
- Trick: The cookies can be butter or chocolate, but avoid using filled cookies or cookies with chocolate drops for the base of this easy creamy Nutella cake.
- Cover the base of a cake tin with this mixture and bake it in a preheated oven at 200°C for 10-15 minutes.
- Then take it out and let it cool.
- If you prefer to make a Nutella cake without an oven, instead of baking the cookie base, put it in the fridge for 2 hours, once you pour the filling in the next step.
- Tip: Preferably use a removable mold of about 20 cm in diameter.
- Using an electric whisk, preferably beat the Nutella together with the cold milk or cream until it is a creamy mixture without lumps.
- Pour it over the cookie base and reserve the Nutella cake in the fridge for 3 hours.
- If you prefer, you can make a Nocilla and biscuit cake or any other cocoa cream that you like, such as this recipe for homemade chocolate and hazelnut cream, for example.
- After that time, the cookie and Nutella cake will have taken consistency and will be delicious and ready to serve.
- Well, decorate it with whipped cream for desserts or chocolate whipped cream, for example.
