Ingredients

For the Crust:

▢ 90 g Cookies Oreos, graham crackers, digestives or chocolate wafer cookies
▢ 45 g Unsalted Butter Softened
▢ 20 g Nutella

For the Filling:

▢ 500 g Cream Cheese
▢ 120 g Condensed Milk
▢ 250 g Nutella

For the Topping:

▢ 100 g Nutella
▢ 15 ml Vegetable Oil

Instructions

Pulse the cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs. Transfer to a mixing bowl, add the melted butter and Nutella, and stir until everything is fully combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 16 cm cake mold using a glass to make an even crust. Refrigerate the crust for 30 minutes to set.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the condensed milk and continue to beat until fully combined. Add Nutella and beat again until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the surface evenly. Refrigerate the Nutella cheesecake for at least 2 hours to set.
In a small bowl, mix Nutella and vegetable oil until smooth and pourable. Pour the topping over the chilled cheesecake and spread it evenly. Refrigerate for another hour to let the topping set.
Remove the cheesecake from the mold, slice, and serve.

Notes

Press the Crust Firmly: I like to use the bottom of a glass to really press the crust down so it stays compact and holds together when slicing.

Beat the Filling Until Super Smooth: I always take a few extra minutes to make sure the cream cheese, Nutella, and condensed milk are completely blended; no lumps at all.

Chill It Long Enough: I’ve found that leaving the cheesecake in the fridge overnight gives it the best texture and makes it easier to slice.

Warm the Nutella Topping Slightly: I microwave it just a few seconds before mixing with oil; it pours so much smoother that way.

Warm the knife under hot water before slicing: This simple step gives me clean, neat cuts every single time, just remember to wipe the knife dry between each slice.
