Nutella Cheesecake - easy no-bake cheesecake loaded with Nutella and hazelnut. Creamy, rich, the best Nutella Cheesecake recipe ever, by Nigella Lawson.
This is the famous Nigella’s Nutella Cheesecake. If you are a fan of nutella, you need to try out this Nutella Cheesecake recipe. Nutella really does make a regular cheesecake so much more better!
What I love most about this Nutella Cheesecake is the chopped toasted hazelnuts that give each bite a nice crunch and texture. There is no egg in the recipe, so there is no need to bake.
Just beat the cream cheese and sugar, and chill everything in the fridge for a few hours and you have this sinfully delicious Nutella cheesecake.

I’ve never seen so many stupid questions. Doesn’t anyone have any “common sense” anymore? Rasa you must have the patience of a saint! Great recipe!!
haha I was just wondering this… I feel like most people are just too lazy to google (or they are trolling here).
Ha ha, I was thinking this too. Some of them are really funny, but I think it’s probably a mixture of laziness and ignorance. (With maybe some people struggling if English isn’t their first language? Am I being too charitable?? :) )
