  • 3 pints chocolate gelato or ice cream, slightly softened
  • One 13-ounce jar Nutella or other chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 2 pints hazelnut gelato or ice cream, slightly softened
  • 1 cup coarsely chopped toasted hazelnuts
1. Spoon the chocolate gelato in small pieces into a 9-inch springform pan, filling in any large holes, then spread it evenly with a warm rubber spatula. Pour half of the Nutella over the gelato and spread it evenly with a small offset spatula. Freeze for at least 1 hour, or until firm.

2. Spoon the hazelnut gelato over the Nutella in small pieces, filling in any large holes, then spread it evenly with a warm rubber spatula. Pour the remaining Nutella over the gelato and spread it evenly with the offset spatula. Scatter the hazelnuts over the top of the cake, then press in. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and freeze for at least 6 hours, or up to 2 weeks.
3. To serve, let the cake stand at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes or in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes. Run a knife around the inside of the pan, release the side of the pan, and remove it. Cut the cake into wedges.edges.  Remove any white membrane.  Either leave whole or cut in half.
3.  This dressing will make more than you need for this salad.  It's a favorite in our house and I'm sure you'll want to have extra.  For this amount of salad, place 1/2 cup of finished dressing in a salad bowl.  Add cooked beets and tangerines and toss.  Spring with feta cheese.
