Designed to go into 10cm ramekins or other alternatives, this dessert is not only made for one, but it can be made for individual desserts, which is quick and easy to make.

So why Nutella? Well, we wanted something simple and melting chocolate was just another step to add. Also, the flavour through the cream cheese is fantastic.

How to make No-Bake Mini Nutella Chocolate Cheesecake

The best thing we like about this recipe is that it is adaptable to your needs.

And if you times the ingredients by the number of people you want to serve, you can make enough for everybody. But if there is quite a crowd to please, you can still create this using a cake or slice pan and serve it as individual slices.

Base Ingredients:

  • Marie or digestive biscuits
  • Unsalted Butter

Filling Ingredients:

  • Cream Cheese
  • Icing or Confectionary Sugar
  • Nutella or Hazelnut Spread

Topping Ingredients:

  • Nutella
  • Olive Oil
  • Roasted Hazelnuts
  • Strawberry

Base Method:

Place the biscuits into a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin or the pestle (if you have a mortar and pestle on hand. Alternatively, you can use a food processor too.

Melt the butter in the microwave for around 20 secs or more, using 20-second increments to avoid the butter splatting everywhere.

Pro Tip: don’t melt the butter fully; there should be a small amount left unmelted; stir until that butter melts. Doing this avoids the butter separating.

Combine the butter with the crushed biscuits and combine well.

Put the base mixture into the bottom of your ramekin and gently press it into place using the back of a spoon to create the base. You do not want the bottom too firm as you eat it directly from the ramekin.

Note: if you are creating a larger cheesecake, you will need to press it firmly into place with a flat-based glass as you will be cutting this.

Filling Method:

Add the softened cream cheese, icing sugar and Nutella into a small mixing bowl. Using a handheld or stand mixer, combine the ingredients on a low speed, then mix until smooth and creamy at high speed.

Spoon the mixture into the ramekin and press, and smooth into place using the back of a spoon.

Topping Method:

Place the Nutella and olive oil into a microwave-safe bowl and melt the Nutella for about 30 to 40 seconds. Then stir to combine thoroughly.

Pour the melted Nutella over the cheesecake and smooth it out with the back of a spoon.

Note: the olive oil is optional, but we found that the melted Nutella spreads easier with a small amount added, and it does not affect the taste either.

To decorate, crush a few roasted hazelnuts and sprinkle over the top of the topping, then add a strawberry.

You can even add a little whipped cream if you like.

Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour or until you are ready to eat it.

  • 125 g of the biscuits and 80 g of the unsalted butter
