Mia's Recipe: No Bake Nutella-Oreo Mini Cheesecake

Yes, I know it has been ages since I last did a baking recipe post. So here am I with another one, a very simple one.
Aren't they cute? :)

So let's get on with the ingredients so we can get started. 

You'll need:
283g Oreo cookies (you may replace it with digestive biscuits) 
368g Nutella
5 tbsp. Unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup toasted nuts (depends on how much toppings you want for your cheesecakes)
454g  Cream cheese
62.5g Icing sugar
2 tsp Gelatine, dissolved in hot water. (my cream cheese layer turned out still pretty gooey, so you might want to increase the gelatine amount)

It's so easy to make these yummy mini cheesecakes that I feel embarrassed even doing a recipe post about it. >.<"
First, mash up the cookies into fine crumb and mix in melted butter until the consistency resembles wet sand. 
Distribute it into the cupcake liners/glass jars and pack them in to the thickness you prefer. 
Chill in the fridge to set.

In a clean bowl, beat the soften block cream cheese till 'creamy' and then add in icing sugar. Beat till well combined. Then, add in nutella and beat until combined.
I'll suggest you use a stand-mixer or a hand-held mixer instead of a hand whisking as the addition of nutella kind of 'clump' up the mixture and even using a hand-held required some strength to control the beaters. 
Lastly, pour in the gelatine mixture and beat till smooth. 

Distribute the cream cheese mixture into the liners/glass jars according to your preferred thickness. 
Sprinkle on as much/as little toasted nuts as you'll like.
Chill in the fridge overnight to set. 



I did half of the recipe and got 6 mini cupcakes, and 3 glass jars. As you can see, I prefer thick, thick crumb layer. xp

Till then,
Mia

  1. I'm always on the lookout for easy dessert recipes. We love Oreo and Nutella! This is definitely a keeper. Will keep that tip about the gelatin in mind. Thank you!
