Cream Cheese: Choose full-fat cream cheese for the best texture and creamy consistency; it’s essential for that luscious filling.
Heavy Whipping Cream: This makes your cheesecake light and fluffy; whip until stiff peaks form for best results.
Sugar: A bit of sweetness balances out the flavors; adjust according to your taste preferences.

Let’s Make it together
Prepping this No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake is as easy as pie—err… cheesecake! Follow these simple steps to create your masterpiece.
Create the Crust: Start by crushing about 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable bag and smashing them with a rolling pin. Combine the crumbs with melted butter until well mixed. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, creating an even layer.
Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add Nutella while continuing to mix until fully combined. The mixture should look like silky chocolate heaven!
Add Sweetness and Whip Cream: Stir in sugar to taste and mix until well incorporated. In another bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form—this will give your cheesecake that airy texture we all love! Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture until no streaks remain.
Combine Layers: Pour half of your luscious filling over the prepared crust, smoothing out with a spatula. Crush 6-8 additional Oreos and sprinkle them over this layer for added crunch before adding the remaining filling on top.
Chill Out!: Cover your cheesecake with plastic wrap and let it set in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight if you can wait that long (trust me, it’s worth it!). The longer it chills, the better those flavors meld together.
Garnish and Serve: Once set, remove from the springform pan and decorate with whipped cream or additional crushed Oreos if desired. Slice up generous portions and watch everyone’s faces light up when they take their first bite!
No fancy techniques are needed here—just patience as you wait for that glorious cheesecake to chill!
Now go ahead and embrace your inner pastry chef! Your No Bake Oreo Nutella Cheesecake is just waiting to bring joy (and maybe some happy dancing) into your life. Enjoy every decadent bite!
