Whipped cream In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with sugar until soft peaks form.
make filling Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in two parts. First, fold in half of the whipped cream until almost fully integrated, then add the other half. Use a spatula to fold the ingredients together until fully combined. The filling should be light, fluffy, and smooth.
build cheesecake Pour half of the filling into the prepared pan and smooth it out. Add the Kinder Bueno filling for the center, then top with the remaining cheesecake filling and smooth it out again.
refrigerate Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap or a baking tray to protect it from any odors or spills in the fridge. Chill for at least 8 hours or overnight.
decorate Melt some Kinder Bueno spread and pour it over the cheesecake, tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Crush some wafer rolls and sprinkle them on the sides, along with pearl sugar. Add Happy Hippos on top for a beautiful finishing touch.
