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.

For ease and preventing myself from indulging too much, I bought our (in USA) Kiebler brand of mini grahm cracker pie shells. They are single serving and should come our nicely for my family of nine. Thank you for this delicious looking recipe. And…any good scale should convert gm and oz for easy measuring. Measure the nuts (what ever variety you like) and use the amount your family likes.
obviously she did not mean years I can’t believe how rude and ignorant people can be. It was a typing error! They happen people !! I find it so sad people think because they have a keyboard and Internet not class or tack not longer applies.
Hi Rasa, I have salted butter on my fridge & chopped cashew… will that make any differecent replacing the unsalted butter & hazelnut? Thanks!
Salted butter is OK. Cashew is fine, too. :)
Can i use crushed graham for this? Tnxs
I think so.
Rasa,
I made this recipe and everyone loved it! The one problem I had was with the crust, it did not stick together at all and just crumbled. What can I add to make it stick together better? Should i add more butter, or maybe mix in an egg and bake it? Thanks!
You add more butter.
I had this problem too although I follow the recipe what can I do to make crust be good and stick together.
You need to press tightly. Please see the video.
the recipe calls for digestives?!? What is that?!? Do you mean some kind of animal digestive track or intestine?!?!
Here is the ingredient stated in the recipe: 10 oz (280 g) graham crackers (digestive biscuits)
Graham crackers are called digestive biscuits in the UK. This recipe is from Nigella Lawson, a British chef.
