In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and chocolate hazelnut spread. Pour the mixture over the crust and bake for 45 minutes.
While the cheesecake is baking, make the hazelnut praline topping. In a saucepan, combine the chopped hazelnuts, sugar, and water.
