Nutella cheesecake is a cheesecake you’ll want to make for a special occasion because it is fabulously indulgent. In addition to a creamy Nutella filling, there’s also a rich chocolate ganache on top. The oreo crust has hazelnuts in it for extra flavor.

Tips for making Nutella Cheesecake:

  • Use a quality springform pan and  wrap the bottom and sides with aluminum foil just in case it leaks. This is also important if you use a water bath.
  • Use a water bath for more even cooking and hopefully no crack on top. But no worries if it does crack a little. The ganache will hide it.
  • Don’t overbeat the filling once you add the eggs. It will just whip air into the batter which will cause the cheesecake to puff up as it bakes.
  • Don’t overbake the cheesecake. It will still be a little jiggly when you remove it from the oven but it will firm up as it cools.
