  7. Stir in the heavy cream until the batter is silky.
  8. Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  9. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until the center is slightly set but still gently jiggly.
  10. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully chilled.
  12. Arrange sliced strawberries on top and brush with warmed strawberry jam before serving.

Notes

Use a graham cracker crust instead of chocolate cookies for a lighter base.Swirl extra Nutella into the top before baking for a marbled effect.Add a layer of chocolate ganache beneath the strawberries for extra richness.Substitute raspberries for a slightly tart contrast.Make mini cheesecakes in a muffin tin for individual servings.Store in the fridge for up to 5 days; freeze for up to 2 months when tightly wrapped.For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wipe between cuts.
