This is probably one of the best things I have ever made, so naturally I had to share it with you all. If you love Oreos and Nutella, this is for you. When I was searching for a recipe for a no-bake Nutella and Oreo Cheesecake I just couldn’t find one that fitted what I had in my mind, so I had to take bits from various recipes, and add my own creative flair (pah!).
My creative flair consisted of blending the Oreos into crumbs, and the mixing them so well that it gave the Cheesecake a proper ‘grey/chocolate/oreo’ colour, rather than just a cream colour with Oreo chunks. Don’t get me wrong, I love chunks of Oreos, but they don’t make the entire cheesecake taste of Oreo. If you get what I mean? Also the drizzled melted Nutella on top just adds the perfect hint of hazelnut and chocolate.
Oreo Biscuit Base Ingredients
20 Oreos
80g butter
Oreo Cheesecake Filling Ingredients
680g cream cheese, room temperature
24 Oreos (two packs)
120g golden caster sugar
270ml whipped cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
Oreo Cheesecake Method
First put your 80g of butter into a microwaveable bowl and then put it in the microwave for 40 seconds. While that’s in the microwave, put 20 Oreos into a food processor (I used my Russell Hobbs Aura 6-in-1, which is literally the best thing you will ever buy, and it’s currently on sale!) and whizz them until they’re just crumbs.
Then combine the Oreo crumbs with the 80g of melted butter and mix until the butter is completely coating the crumbs. Press the crumbs into the bottom of a well-greased medium-sized springform pan. Put into the refrigerator to firm while you make the filling.
Then whizz the other 24 Oreos in the food processor, and then add around three quarters of them to the mixture too. When all of your Oreo crumbs are nice and mixed in, take your tin that contains your biscuit base out of the fridge, and pour the filling onto the base. Smooth the top, lick the spoon, then cover the top with the rest of the crumbs.
Then simply pop it back into the fridge and leave it in there overnight to set! Then remove and drizzle a spoonful of melted Nutella (pop it in a microwavable bowl and microwave for 40 seconds) over the top of the crumbs, add a small rosette of cream, sprinkle some more Oreo crumbs on if you have any left, and Ta-da!
I can’t even describe how incredible and indulgent this cheesecake is, and it’s so simple! Make this and you’ll be everyone’s favourite person. It’s perfect for every occasion; a lazy Sunday, family dinners, afternoon tea with friends, or you could even make it for someone special’s birthday!
Because of the huge amount of Oreos you need, the entire cheesecake cost around £7.50 to make (I use Sainsbury’s basics ingredients for baking, such as the sugar, butter, and cream cheese, and then the Oreos were on special offer for £1 per pack), and it serves 10-12, so that’s roughly 65p per serving – not bad!
This looks so delicious! Reminds me of the Twix cheesecake I shared recently – chocolate bar themed cheesecakes are the best. I love the addition of Nutella, since everything is improved with Nutella! 🙂

This sounds utterly, utterly decadent and equal turns wonderful – perfect for this time of year!
I don't even like oreos! But this actually sounds quite tasty! I would get mega brownie (geddit) points from my best friend if I made this for her!!

It's hard to find any cheesecake better than this one, amazing recipe!
This looks unreal, but I disagree it would serve 10… This would be gone between the three of us easily 🙂
