How to make Nutella Cheesecake

Tips and Tricks for Nutella Cheesecake

  • The cheesecake filling can be made in a food processor, a good blender, or add all of the ingredients to a bowl and beat with a hand mixer or wooden spoon.
  • To make the base you can use Oreos, Bourbon Biscuits or Chocolate Digestives instead.
  • This recipe requires either a springform or lose bottomed tin.
  • Take the cream cheese out of the fridge 1  -2 hours in advance, so it is soft enough to use before starting this recipe. It makes it easier to blend smoothly. 
  • Bring your cream to room temperature, because batters made with cold ingredients don’t come together smoothly.
  • Finally, you’ll want to be sure you chill your cheesecake for at least 4 hours in the fridge before slicing and serving. 

Can it be made ahead?

Yes, it can be made up to 3 days in advance.

Can I Freeze Nutella Cheesecake?

Yes. After it has set in the fridge, wrap the entire tin (you can remove the sides if you like) in 1 layer of cling film and 1 layer of foil. It freezes well for up to 3 months. 

How to Defrost Cheesecake:

To defrost this cheesecake, simply thaw in the fridge overnight.
