Individual No-Bake Nutella Cheesecakes
Individual desserts in a glass are my favorite go to recipes when I am looking for something quick yet impressive to serve to my guests. The possibilities are really endless here. I have personally already made cream parfaits, yogurt parfaits, individual Banoffee pies, individual peanut butter pies and some strawberry cheesecakes in a glass too. Apart from the deliciousness, I have always loved the cute factor that these little treats possess.
With that said, I just knew that my fate was sealed when I noticed a recipe for a Nutella Cheesecake in the deep waters of the internet… and here’s the rest of the story…
The ingredients.
1. To make the individual Nutella cheesecakes, first use a food processor (blender or rolling pin) to crush 12 Oreo cookies into crumbs.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter.
3. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and Nutella until smooth. Add the vanilla and mix to combine. Whip the cream (8 ounces/230 ml) and using a rubber spatula, fold the cream in the Nutella mixture until well blended and no streaks remain. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
4. Whip the remaining cream with about 3 tablespoons powdered sugar to use for the garnish.
5. Evenly divide the crumbs between your individual serving dishes (I had just enough mixture for about 3 1.5-cup/300 ml glasses).
6. Evenly pipe the filling into the serving dishes.
7. Garnish with with additional whipped cream, chocolate shavings and toasted, chopped hazelnuts.
8. Refrigerate for about 2 hours before serving.
And that’s it!
Mmmm!
Enjoy, dear friends!
Love,
Petra
