No Bake Mini Nutella Cheesecakes.

When you have people coming over and don’t have any clue what to make, no bake mini cheesecakes work well. You can change the fillings at any point. Sometimes I’ll make a vanilla base, then change the toppings, with either coulis, fresh fruit or chocolate candies. They are so versatile. 

I opened up my cupboard and found a jar of Nutella and some Oreos. And that was enough a sign to make these no bake mini Nutella cheesecakes. 

Preparation Time 20 minutes 

Set Time 1 hour 

Yields 12 

Ingredients 

Base 

140 grams Oreos- crushed 

3 tablespoons butter - melted 

Cheesecake

3/4 cup Nutella 

1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

3. Beat the heavy whipping cream and vanilla until stiff peaks form. 

4. Fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture. Fold in 2 batches.
