No-bake Nutella Cheesecake

What is not to love about this cheesecake? Nutella, Kinder Buenos, all together as a cheesecake! I mean come on, talk about being in a chocolate paradise here, but this has got to be it!?

It is another no-bake cheesecake, and super easy to do. All you need is the one day for it to set and you can be enjoying this absolute treat. Not only will this impress your guests and have them asking questions, you will be sad when it is all gone, but hey, it is just as easy to make another ha!

I was really craving a chocolate cheesecake when I decided to make this, its a similar approach to the lemon cheesecake, only I have added Nutella, Kinder Buenos, White Chocolate drizzle, and switched out the biscuit for their chocolate version of hobnobs.

I won’t delve into the history much about cheesecake in this recipe, because I covered a little of that in my no-bake lemon curd cheesecake recipe right here… https://www.britisheats.com/no-bake-lemon-curd-cheesecake/, which went down a storm on social media and I was glad to see everyone enjoying it. It really makes me happy knowing that what I do is finding a smile to other peoples faces.

Recipe Recap

• Ensure you wash the whisks before you whip up the double cream.
• You can use any biscuit you want, just stick to the quantities mentioned.
• If you cannot get Philadelphia cream cheese, use another brand, or more mascarpone.
• If any of the cream cheeses have any excess whey floating on top, strain that off.
• Before removing the tin, run a palette knife around the edges to avoid any sticking.

Ingredients

For the Base

• 262 g Chocolate Hobnobs
• 113 g Unsalted Butter

The Filling

• 226 g Philadelphia Cream Cheese Or another type of cream cheese will work.
• 133 g Unrefined Caster Sugar
• 300 ml Double Cream
• 340 g Mascarpone Cream Cheese
• 400 g Nutella

Topping

• 50 g White Chocolate
• 2 Kinder Buenos
• 2 Kinder Bueno White

Instructions

The Base

• In a food processor, blitz the chocolate hobnobs until they are all broken down into a fine crumb.
• Melt the butter in the microwave, and then allow to cool slightly before pouring that into the biscuit crumb.
• Pulse a few times to combine the butter and biscuit to a paste.
• In a springform tin, make a cartouche with some greaseproof paper to sit in the bottom of the tin.
• Spread the biscuit mix, evenly into the tin, pressing down with your fingertips, or knuckles to smooth it all out and compress it together.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes until it has set.

The Filling

• You will need two mixing bowls, and in the first one, add the Philadelphia cream cheese, sugar and Nutella, and whisk together with an electric whisk until fluffy and smooth.
• Wash the electric whisks, and in the other mixing bowl, on a high speed, whip up the double cream until stiff peaks.
• Now add the mascarpone cheese and whisk again on a lower speed until it all combines.
• Fold in the chocolate cream cheese mixture until it is all well combined.
• Spread evenly on top of the biscuit base.
• Place this back into the fridge overnight until the cheesecake has set.

The Toppings

• Using a palette knife, score around the edges of the cheesecake so it removed from the tin without sticking.
• Melt your white chocolate in the microwave and drizzle over the top in whatever pattern pleases you.
• Then around the edges, use alternate squares of the Kinder Buenos to make a pattern around the edge.
• There you have it. No-bake Nutella Bueno chocolate cheesecake to enjoy!

Notes

Ensure the biscuit has set properly before adding the mixture onto the base.

If you want to change the biscuit, you can do. Just stay within the quantities provided.

Make them into mini pots if you have the space in the fridge.
