Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 200 grams Oreos (18 whole Oreos)
  • 45 grams melted butter

Cheesecake Filling

  • 500 grams cream cheese, room temperature
  • 200 grams Nutella
  • 50 grams powdered sugar
  • 200 grams heavy whipping cream (35% fat)

Nutella Center

  • 150 grams Nutella

Decoration

  • 150 grams Nutella, melted
  • 4 Oreos, crushed (biscuit only)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Nutella Disk: Lay parchment paper on a flat surface, scoop 150 grams Nutella and spread into a circle approximately the size of your cake pan. Freeze until firm to use later as the cheesecake’s center.
  2. Prepare the Oreo Crust: Crush Oreos finely using a food processor or rolling pin inside a ziplock bag. Mix crushed Oreos with melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to form an even crust layer.
  3. Make the Nutella Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the room-temperature cream cheese and 200 grams Nutella until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form, ensuring not to overwhip.
  4. Combine the Filling: Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the Nutella and cream cheese mixture. Once partially combined, fold in the remaining whipped cream. Continue folding until the filling is light, fluffy, and homogeneously mixed.
  5. Assemble the Cheesecake: Spread half of the filling evenly over the prepared Oreo crust. Place the frozen Nutella disk in the center, then cover with the remaining filling, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill the Cheesecake: Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a baking tray to prevent absorption of fridge odors. Chill for at least 8 hours or overnight for the cheesecake to set firm.
  7. Decorate with Nutella and Oreos: Melt 150 grams Nutella and drizzle evenly over the cheesecake surface by tilting the pan. Sprinkle crushed Oreo biscuit pieces around the side edges for added texture and visual appeal.
  8. Slice and Serve: Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Slice into desired portions and serve immediately to enjoy the creamy, chocolatey dessert.
  9. Store Leftovers: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or freeze slices for up to 3 months. Thaw frozen portions overnight in the fridge before serving.

Notes

  • Freezing the Nutella disk beforehand ensures a neat, defined layer in the middle of the cheesecake.
  • Do not overwhip the heavy cream as it might become too stiff to fold properly into the filling.
  • Press the Oreo crust firmly to avoid crumbling when slicing.
  • The cheesecake needs sufficient chilling time, preferably overnight, to set perfectly.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth filling without lumps.
  • Leftovers can also be frozen but should be thawed in the fridge to maintain texture.
