Hazelnuts, hazelnut-chocolate spread, and fat-free cheeses make this dessert lower in saturated fat and higher in heart-healthy monounsaturated fat than most cheesecakes. Look for hazelnut-chocolate spread near the peanut butter
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts, toasted and divided
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 15 chocolate wafers
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
- 1 tablespoon hot water
