Torta della Nonna alla Nutella (Grandma's Pie with Nutella)

I very rarely do desserts, they are not my territory. But I could not resist giving this one a try. It's a twist on a very classic "Torta della Nonna": cocoa in the crust, pine seeds on the top, a generous layer of Nutella inside, and a nice vanilla custard filling.

Very simple ingredients

Making the shell. Cocoa flavored shortbread.

Let's be generous with that Nutella!

In goes the vanilla custard

Pine seeds on top: a classic feature of Torta della Nonna. In the oven you go, baby!
