Ingredients:
No-Bake Cheesecake Assembly:
The Oreo Crust:
This forms the sturdy and delicious foundation of our cheesecake. The key is to crush the Oreos finely so they bind well with the melted butter. You can use a food processor for a super fine crum extractb, or place the Oreos in a sturdy zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Make sure there are no large chunks.
In a medium bowl, combine the 200g of crushed Oreos with the 50g of melted butter. Stir thoroughly until all the cookie crum extractbs are moistened and resemble wet sand. This mixture is what will hold its shape.
Next, take your chosen cheesecake tin (a 20-23cm springform pan is ideal). Spoon the Oreo-butter mixture into the bottom of the pan. Using the back of a spoon or a flat-bottomed glass, press the crum extractbs down firmly and evenly across the base. You want a compact layer that won’t crum extractble when you slice the cheesecake. For an extra touch, you can press the mixture slightly up the sides of the pan to create a decorative edge. Place the prepared crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling. This helps it set and become firmer.
The Creamy Nutella Cheesecake Filling:
Now for the star of the show – the lusciously smooth cheesecake filling. Ensure your cream cheese is truly softened; this is crucial for achieving a lump-free, silky texture. If it’s too cold, it will be difficult to mix and you might end up with a lumpy filling. You can leave it out on the counter for an hour or two, or gently warm it in the microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring in between, until it’s soft but not melted.
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until it’s completely smooth and creamy. There should be no lumps whatsoever. This step is important for a professional-looking and tasting cheesecake.
Add the 200g of Nutella to the cream cheese. Beat again until it’s fully incorporated and the mixture is a beautiful, uniform chocolate-hazelnut color. Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally to ensure everything is mixed in evenly.
In a separate, clean bowl, whip the 200g of very cold heavy whipping cream with the 50g of granulated sugar. Use an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. This means when you lift the whisk, the cream holds its shape and doesn’t flop over. Be careful not to over-whip, or you’ll end up with butter.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and Nutella mixture. Do this in two or three additions, using a spatula. Be gentle to keep as much air in the whipped cream as possible; this contributes to the lightness and fluffiness of the cheesecake. The result should be a thick, smooth, and airy filling.
Now, it’s time to incorporate the textural elements. Gently fold in the 100g of chopped Oreos. These will add delightful little crunchy surprises throughout the cheesecake. For that extra layer of Nutella goodness, dollop the 100g of Nutella over the cheesecake filling. Using a knife or a skewer, gently swirl the Nutella through the filling. Don’t overmix; you want distinct swirls of Nutella, not a uniform brown color.
Assembling and Chilling:
Retrieve the chilled Oreo crust from the refrigerator. Spoon the prepared Nutella cheesecake filling over the crust, spreading it evenly with your spatula. Make sure the surface is smooth and level.
Decorating and Setting:
To finish off our masterpiece, gently drizzle the warmed 100g of Nutella over the top of the cheesecake. Warming the Nutella slightly makes it easier to drizzle and creates beautiful, flowing lines. Then, sprinkle the 5 crushed Oreos (without filling) over the drizzled Nutella. Finally, arrange the 6 whole Oreos artistically on top.
Cover the cheesecake loosely with plastic wrap or foil, ensuring it doesn’t touch the surface of the cheesecake. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set completely. This chilling time is crucial for the cheesecake to firm up and for the flavors to meld beautifully.
Once the cheesecake is fully set, carefully release the sides of the springform pan. Slice with a sharp knife that has been dipped in hot water and wiped dry between each cut for clean slices. Enjoy this decadent No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake!

The possibilities are endless, and the reward is always a happy sigh of pure dessert enjoyment.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I make this No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake ahead of time?
Absolutely! In fact, I recommend making it at least 4-6 hours, or even a day, in advance. This allows the cheesecake to fully set and the flavors to meld together beautifully. Just cover it tightly with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator.
What if I don’t have Oreos? Can I use a different cookie for the crust?
Yes, you can! While Oreos are fantastic, you can substitute them with other chocolate sandwich cookies or even chocolate grabeef ham crackers. You might need to adjust the amount of melted butter slightly depending on the cookie’s texture.
How long does this cheesecake last in the refrigerator?
This No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake will stay fresh in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days when stored properly in an airtight container. However, I doubt it will last that long – it’s just too tempting!
