Instructions:
1. Prepare the Oreo Crust
Begin extract by creating the irresistible foundation for our cheesecake. Take your 200g of crushed Oreos and place them in a medium-sized bowl. You want a fine crum extractb, so if you’re using a food processor, pulse until you achieve this. If you’re doing it by hand, place the Oreos in a sturdy zip-top bag and use a rolling pin to crush them into fine crum extractbs. Once you have your crum extractbs, add the 50g of melted butter. Stir this mixture thoroughly until all the cookie crum extractbs are evenly coated with butter. This is crucial for creating a crust that holds its shape and has a satisfyingly crum extractbly texture.
Next, transfer this buttery Oreo mixture into your springform pan (an 8 or 9-inch pan works perfectly). I like to press the crum extractbs firmly into the bottom of the pan and slightly up the sides, about half an inch. Using the bottom of a glass or a flat-bottomed measuring cup helps to create a compact and even layer. Make sure to get it as packed as possible, as this will prevent the crust from falling apart when you slice the cheesecake. Once pressed, place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling. This chilling step allows the butter to solidify, further firming up the crust.
2. Create the Creamy Nutella Cheesecake Filling
Now for the star of the show – the luscious cheesecake filling! In a large mixing bowl, add your 500g of softened cream cheese. Ensure your cream cheese is truly softened, meaning it’s at room temperature and yields slightly to the touch. This is vital for achieving a smooth, lump-free filling. You can use a hand mixer or a stand mixer with the whisk attachment for this. Beat the cream cheese on medium speed until it’s completely smooth and creamy, with no lumps remaining. This might take a couple of minutes, so be patient and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Once the cream cheese is smooth, add the 200g of Nutella to the bowl. Continue to beat on medium speed until the Nutella is fully incorporated into the cream cheese, creating a beautiful, uniform hazelnut-chocolate mixture. This is where that incredible flavor really starts to come through! Next, add the 50g of sugar and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix at this stage.
3. Whip the Heavy Cream
In a separate, clean bowl, pour in your 200g of heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer (with clean beaters) to whip the cream on medium-high speed. You’re looking for soft peaks to form. This means that when you lift the whisk, the cream will hold its shape but the tips will curl over. If you whip it too much, you’ll end up with butter! So, keep a close eye on it.
Once you have soft peaks, gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula and a gentle folding motion, scooping from the bottom of the bowl and bringin extractg it over the top. This helps to incorporate air and keep the filling light and airy. Continue folding until no streaks of whipped cream remain, but be careful not to deflate the mixture.
4. Assemble and Chill the Cheesecake
Gently pour the creamy Nutella cheesecake filling over your chilled Oreo crust in the springform pan. Spread the filling evenly with your spatula, creating a smooth top surface. Now, it’s time to add some texture and more delicious Nutella! Sprinkle the 100g of chopped Oreos over the top of the cheesecake filling. This will add little pockets of crunch and even more of that classic Oreo flavor. Drizzle the 100g of Nutella over the chopped Oreos. You can do this in a random pattern or create swirls, whatever looks most appealing to you!
Finally, cover the springform pan tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 6-8 hours, or preferably overnight. This extended chilling time is crucial for the cheesecake to set properly, ensuring a firm texture that can be easily sliced. The longer it chills, the better it will hold its shape.
5. Garnish and Serve
Once your cheesecake is completely chilled and set, it’s time for the final flourish! Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. If any of the crust sticks to the sides, you can gently run a knife around the edge to loosen it. Now, for the drizzle! Gently warm the remaining 100g of Nutella. You can do this in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds, stirring halfway through, or place the Nutella in a small heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (a double boiler method). Be careful not to overheat it. Drizzle the warmed Nutella generously over the top of the cheesecake.
For an extra touch of elegance and flavor, sprinkle the 5 crushed Oreos (without filling) over the Nutella drizzle. Finally, arrange the 6 whole Oreos around the top of the cheesecake for a beautiful presentation. Slice with a sharp knife (dipping the knife in hot water and wiping it clean between slices can help create neat cuts) and serve this incredible No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake to your delighted guests! Enjoy every decadent bite!

Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I make this cheesecake ahead of time?
Absolutely! In fact, making it ahead is highly recommended. Chilling it for at least 4-6 hours, or ideally overnight, allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the cheesecake to set up perfectly. This makes it an ideal make-ahead dessert for parties or busy weeknights.
What if I don’t have Nutella? Can I substitute it?
While Nutella is key to that signature hazelnut-chocolate flavor, you can certainly try a substitute! Other chocolate-hazelnut spreads would work well. Alternatively, you could try a good quality chocolate ganache or even a smooth peanut butter for a different, but still delicious, flavor profile. The texture might vary slightly, but it will still be fantastic.
How long will the cheesecake last in the refrigerator?
Stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, your No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake should stay fresh and delicious for about 3-4 days. Make sure it’s well covered to prevent it from absorbing any other odors from the fridge.
