Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (403g) Oreo cookie crumbs
  • 5 tbsp (70g) salted butter, melted
  • 24 oz (678g) cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (155g) sugar
  • 3 tbsp (24g) flour
  • 2 cups (616g) Nutella
  • 1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (309g) Nutella (for topping)
  • 1/4 cup (43g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp (135ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup (29g) natural unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup (86g) powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (for topping)
  • Ferrero Rocher candies, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well-coated and press this mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for about 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy. Gradually add in your sugar and flour while continuing to beat.
  4. Mix in the Nutella and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
  6. Pour your Nutella filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is slightly wobbly.
  8. Once baked, turn off the oven and crack the door open. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven for about an hour, then refrigerate.
  9. In a bowl, beat the cold heavy cream with powdered sugar and cocoa powder until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the vanilla extract.
  10. Spread the whipped cream topping over the chilled cheesecake and drizzle your leftover Nutella on top.
  11. Garnish with Ferrero Rocher candies (if desired).

Notes

For a lighter version, consider using reduced-fat cream cheese and Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream.
