This Nutella Cheesecake recipe so reminded me of the no-bake cheesecakes my mom made when we were kids. Except I have a Nutella/chocolate loving husband so hence, the new generation gets this. My changes are in italics and strike throughs as usual below.
Before I popped it into the fridge overnight!
RECIPE:
Ingredients-
Crust:
24 Oreo cookies (Or buy a pre-made Oreo cookie pie crust – I did!)
1/3 cup melted mutter
Filling:
1 jar (13oz) Nutella
8 oz cream cheese (softened/left out at room temp for an hour.)
8 oz whipped topping or whipped cream (Cool Whip did the trick.)
Decoration (or skip it) :
Whipped Cream
Chocolate Shavings
1. Crush cookies and mix with melted butter. Spread mixture over pie pan. Refrigerate crust while making filling. (Use store bought Oreo cookie pie tin.)
2. Mix Nutella, cream cheese, and whipped topping until smooth. (There will be small little bumps in your mix, no matter how long you use your mixer, trust me.) Spread mixture over pie crust.
3. Decorate the pie then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. The pie can also be served frozen. (Refrigerate overnight and freeze an hour or so before serving as it will soften fast if left out.)
