Nutella Cheesecake

My little daughter turned 3 at the beginning of this month and her wish was to have a Nutella cake with colored bonbons on top. As her wish was the most important for me, I started thinking and searching for the best way I can make her a Nutella Cake which looks good and doesn’t take me too much time to put together.

As much as I like layered cakes, and decorating them, it’s pretty hard to have everything ready for a party, the food and decorations, if only the cake takes half of day. This Nutella Cheesecake was the perfect choice for this anniversary.

I maade the cheesecake in the morning the day before the party, to allow it to cool, and then in the evening, I made the Nutella topping, after all the appetizers and home decorations were done. After refrigerating it for a night, the cheesecake was ready to be served.

Seeing all these layers some may thing it takes a  lot of work, but actually it goes pretty fast and when it’s done it looks totally wonderful. A really dark chocolaty crust from the oreo cookies, a white cream cheese layer and a Nutella layer followed and in the end the intense Nutella topping which makes it totally irresistible. I really loved the way it turned out so I decided to make it again and share it with you.

I have more recipes of cheesecakes on my blog, some uses sour cream or Mascarpone alongside cream cheese. For this recipe it is important to use heavy cream because when mixed with cream cheese it gets whipped a bit and makes possible creating the two different layers of cheese mixture.

If you like Nutella give this cheesecake a try, you will be as pleased as we were. Enjoy!!

Servings 16 servings
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 2 days 7 hours 1 minute
Total Time 2 hours 35 minutes

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 250 g (about 30 oreo cookies) , cream removed
  • 6 tbsp (80 g) unsalted butter , melted
  • 35 oz (1 kg) cream cheese , room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (175g) heavy cream + 2 tbsp , cold
  • 2/3 cup (190g) Nutella
  • 1 cup (200g) sugar
  • 1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch
  • 2 tsp (10g) vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs , room temperature

Nutella Topping

  • 2/3 cup (190g) Nutella
  • 1/3 cup (80g) heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the crust. Preheat oven to 350 F (180C).  Remove the cream between oreo cookies and crush them using a food processor. Melt butter and pour over the crushed cookies. Process until evenly moistened. Press cookie mixture with the back of the spoon into the bottom of a 10-inch (26 cm) springform pan (with a removable base). Bake for 13-15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 300 F (150C).
  • Prepare the cream cheese filling. In a bowl combine the sugar with cornstarch.
  • In a large bowl beat the cream cheese with 3/4 cup heavy cream until well combined and the mixture seems fluffy as the heavy cream has whipped a bit. (This is very important, because this is what makes possible creating the 2 layers effect.) Gradually add the sugar mixture and mix until creamy and smooth. Add vanilla extract and mix again until well combined. Add eggs one at a time until each egg is incorporated.
  • Reserve about 1/3 of cream cheese mixture in a separate bowl. Add Nutella and 2 tbsp of heavy cream over the reserved 1/3 of cream cheese mixture and mix well until incorporated. 
  • Pour the white cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust. Carefully add Nutella mixture on top and use a rubber spatula to spread evenly.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes on 300F (150C). Turn off the heat and leave it another hour in the oven.
  • Remove and run a sharp knife completely around the inside edge of the pan. Let it cool completely at room temperature.
  • Prepare the Nutella topping. Bring cream to a boil and pour over the Nutella. Mix well and spread evenly over the cheesecake.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight. Decorate with some chopped hazelnuts before serving if desired.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Thank you Nami, seems I have big kids now 🙂  I am glad you like the layered cheesecake, it is quite easy to prepare. Maybe you will try it once:)

      1. Vejonepher Baard says:

        This cheesecake is soo amazing! I have been baking it for my boyfriend’s birthday every year.
        I was wondering if it would be possible to add caramel instead of Nutella to the recipe?

        1. Ella - Home Cooking Adventure Author says:

          Sure.. you can definitely add salted caramel sauce instead. I would recommend no more than 1/2 cup (120g) salted caramel sauce.

  5. marcie Author says:

    This cheesecake is one of the prettiest desserts I’ve ever seen! What a wonderful way to celebrate a birthday. I would love a slice of this! 🙂

  6. Christin@SpicySouthernKitchen Author says:

    nice

  10. sano Author says:

    Reserve about 1/3 of cream cheese mixture in a separate bowl. Add Nutella and 2 tbsp of heavy cream and mix well until incorporated.
    i dont understand should i mix nutella in the 1/3 mixture of the separate bowl.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, you should add Nutella  and the 2 tbsp of heavy cream in the 1/3 cream cheese mixture. I will try to make this more clear.

  11. lia denise Kucera Alves Author says:

    gostaria q postassem em portugues.Por favor. a receita deve ser ótima.

  12. Anny Author says:

    You can actually buy the cookie crumbs instead of scraping off the cream of 20 something cookies!!!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I didn't find oreo cookies without the cream, but if you find them good for you. Less time involved 🙂

  13. jinx Author says:

    Hi! great recipe. I like cheesecakes and i want to try this. But the problem is, i don’t have an oven. Can I do this without baking like the other no bake cheesecakes recipes that i’ve tried? Maybe i’ll just eliminate the eggs. Is that possible?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, you can make a Nutella cheesecake without baking. Make the crust and refrigerate until the cream is ready. Beat cream cheese with sugar and vanilla. Don't use the cornstarch here, as it is not necessary. I would suggest to whip the cream separately and then gently fold it in the cream cheese mixture. Separate and mix 1/3 of mixture with Nutella. Add the mixtures over the crust. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Hope it works well, never tried it like this.

  14. Summer Author says:

    My 14 year old made this last night. The second layer pretty much sunk right into the first layer, but it was still delicious.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Did he used heavy cream? It is really important to use heavy cream, not sour cream as the heavy cream whips while mixing. Also it is important to add  the Nutella layer gently on top of the other. But I am glad you liked it, I am sure it was as delicious.

  15. Lucia Author says:

    Oh my God, this is sooo great! Gotta do it for my sister’s birthday next april! *___* Could you just please tell me the equivalent of a cup and a tbsp in gr/ml? I always have difficulties understanding this 🙁

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I've also grown with the metric measurement system but finally get used with both. I've made this article once about ingredient equivalents, so hope it helps.  https://www.homecookingadventure.com/ingredient-equivalents

      The cup I am using is a cup of 240 ml. The tbsp I am using has a capacity of 15 m. The grams will be different for 1 tbsp of sugar or flour so hope the charts I've made will help.

       

      3/4 cup heavy cream = 175 grams

      1 cup sugar= 200 g

      1/3 cup heavy cream = 80 g

      2/3 cup Nutella  -100g

       

      Hope this helps 🙂

  16. sheri Author says:

    Happy birthday to your little girl! There looks to be a fourth layer of darker chocolate on the top, but it’s not mentioned in the recipe. Is that an additional layer or how the Nutella and cream mixture sets up after refrigeration?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Thank you for your wishes 🙂 It is a different layer, a Nutella topping, made with only Nutella and a bit of heavy cream. On step 9 you can see the preparation for this. It is also in the video. Let me know if any other questions 🙂

  17. Rosaly Author says:

    What can substitute heavy cream? There isn´t this ingredient in Brazil. Thanks.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Use whipping cream instead. It will work as good. It needs to have 30% fat or more.  What I used had around 35-36% fat.

  18. Esther Ferrini Author says:

    Thanks a lot I vas looking for a nice cake for my family and I think it is grate They are going to enjoy it very much. I hope i can get all the ingredients in Venezuela because we have some problems here, but I will try it probably I will not be able to get the nutella
    thank you

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Esther, I am glad you like this recipe. You know how recipes are, you can always change some ingredients and still work wonderful. You can substitute heavy cream with whipping cream, Nutella with any other hazelnut chocolate spread (any other brand), or it might work with even some melted chocolate and create a marble effect like here: https://www.homecookingadventure.com/marbled-chocolate-pumpkin-cheesecake. If you can not find oreo cookies you can use any other chocolate cookies. I know it won't look the same or taste exactly the same but it will still be delicious, that's for sure 🙂 Let me know if you try it out:)

  19. bina Author says:

    Awesome recepeis

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Thank you Bina, glad you like it:)

  20. Tiffany Author says:

    love the look of this but is there a way to make it a no bake cheesecake? I tend to prefer the texture and taste hahaah

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, you can make a Nutella cheesecake without baking. Make the crust and refrigerate until the cream is ready. Beat cream cheese with sugar and vanilla. Don't use the cornstarch here and eggs, as it is no longer necessary. I would suggest to whip the cream separately and then gently fold it in the cream cheese mixture. Separate and mix 1/3 of mixture with Nutella. Add the mixtures over the crust. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours even better overnight. Hope it works well, never tried it like this.

  21. Anet Author says:

    Can I use a different cookie other than Oreo? If yes, which one would you suggest?
    I haven’t seen oreo in my small-town store…

    Love the recipie! 🙂 I hope I am successful at making it.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, you can use different cookies, I would suggest to use some chocolate cookies, add some cocoa powder if desired, something similar with the cookies used in this recipe: https://www.homecookingadventure.com/marbled-chocolate-pumpkin-cheesecake. The cheesecake will still be awesome.

  22. dvir Author says:

    how much fat % the cream cheese should be?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      The one I've used, was a fresh cheese that had 4.4% fat. It worked great.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes it is supposed to be like that after the first 55 min, turn off the heat and let it another hour in the oven. Only after that you can remove it from the oven.

  28. Alinah Author says:

    This cheesecake looks amazing! Can you tell us what kind of cream cheese do you use? Is it ok to use Philadelphia cream cheese or is it too soft?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, the Philadelphia kind works good. Hop you will give it a try.

    2. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have used some fresh cheese, similar with Philadelphia but lower in fat. It had only 4.4% fat.

  29. Sara Author says:

    How much is a cup in ml? And can I use any other cookies if I don’t have Oreos?

    Thank you for you answers (=

    Greetings from Slovenia 😉

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Sara, nice to meet you. A cup has 240 ml. You can use other cookies, like some chocolate cookies, it will work good.

  30. Lucas Author says:

    Awesome! I only needed about one package though to get 250 grams of Oreo crumbs

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      that's good, maybe the packages I've found were smaller, it was 170 g each.

  31. Jerene Author says:

    Hi,

    The cake looks good. Wanna try to make it. What do you use to cover the cake after you are done and before putting it in the fridge?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I use plastic wrap. If the cheesecake has cooled at room temperature, after I added the Nutella topping, I put the ring back on, so I have a higher support for the plastic wrap. This way the plastic wrap doesn't touch the surface of the cheesecake.

  32. Paula Author says:

    how can i make the cheese cream?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Never tried making homemade cream cheese, I simply buy it. But if you want to make the cream cheese at home here is a recipe for it. https://www.culturesforhealth.com/how-to-make-cream-cheese. Hope this helps.

  33. Abraham Abela Author says:

    We baked the cheesecake for 45 mins and left it in the oven for another hour as indicated. After the one hour, the cheesecake was still wobbly and we cooked it for another 10 minutes. It is still wobbly. What shall we do?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I left you a message on FB. hope everything turned ok. Let me know:)

  34. Adeeha Author says:

    Dear Ella

    I must say i have been glued to your page and since couple of days i have been just viewing your videos. they are filmed very well and most importantly they look pretty much doable.
    I have pretty much summoned the courage of baking (something i would love to do but most when I do something or the other goes wrong)
    I am planning to try this cheesecake recipe. Its only me and my husband at home so i need to make it in lesser quantity (the recipe good for 2-3 servings)
    1. Can i reduce all the ingredients and portions by half?
    2. should I preheat the oven for before placing the cheesecake for baking?
    3. can Thick cream substitute for heavy cream? please advise

    I plan to bake today so hope to hear from you soon
    Thanks:)

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Adeeha, I am really glad you want to try this cheesecake. You can reduce the ingredients to half but you will need to use a smaller springform pan, 8 inch will do fain. For a 8 inch springform pan I would probably use like 150 -200 g oreo crumbs. The first thing you do is bake the crust at 350F (180C). So preheat the oven to this temperature to bake the crust first. When it's done, remove the crust from the oven to cool, and reduce the oven temperature to 300 (150C). When you finish the cheesecake filling, pour it over the crust and bake it for 45 – 50 mins at 300F(150C), turn off the heat and leave the cheesecake another hour in the oven. Cool at room temperature, add the Nutella topping and refrigerate overnight for best results. I am not sure about the thick cream, didn't try a cheesecake with it. I use heavy cream or whipping cream in this recipe as while mixing together with the cheese it whip and make the mixture fluffy, which allows creating the 2 layers. Mix the mixture enough to let the cream whip a bit. Otherwise the Nutella layer doesn't sit on top of the other. It is also important to use cold cream, for better results. Hope my message helps  🙂

  35. Celest Author says:

    Hi, i would like to try this cake but i only want to make about 8 servings. I am not sure how to adjust the servings

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Well I am sure that if you make the whole recipe it it will be just fine. Because it is soo good some may want a second serving or take with them at home. Leftovers, if any, are always welcome the next days, trust me for that. If I would have to make a cake for 8 people I would definitely do this entirely.

  36. Lisa Author says:

    Hii, this cake looks amazing and I would like to make it for my boyfriends birthday!! The only problem is, I’m from Holland and I never heard of heavy cream.. The second thing is that I have a combi-microwave (the oven works perfectly), but after use the oven cools itself very quickly.. Should I bake the cake for a little bit longer then? Hope to hear from you soon, thanks:)!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Lisa, Heavy cream is like whipping cream, a bit more fat, 36 %. You can use whipping cream, it will work as good.  I would suggest to cook it for 45-50 mins at 300 F and then reduce the oven temperature to very low for the next hour, just to keep it a bit warm. Is that possible?

  37. Erin Author says:

    What do you do with the scraped-off Oreo cream? I don’t want it to go to waste, but I also don’t want to feed straight frosting to my kids, if there’s a better alternative.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      If you want you can try add it to the cream cheese mixture for this cheesecake though I haven't, or keep it for some cupcake frosting. Like mixing some cream cheese with Oreo filling, some butter and sugar and the frosting for some cupcakes is done:) Or adding it in some yogurt and make some parfaits. I didn't have time to make something special out of it, as making a video really takes a long time, but I think the cupcake idea sounds good.

  38. Azue Author says:

    I made this last night..it was delicious! So creamy and just melt in the mouth. I had to bake it slightly more than an hour as I was using 9″ pan so the pan was nearly full. I think I did not mix it until fluffy as I wasn’t sure how it would look like so the Nutella mixture sank a bit but it was still good. I will surely make this again and try to make the layer. Thank you for sharing.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      So glad you liked it Azue.

  39. Tyy Author says:

    Hmmm, this cake seems to be quite large for me.. Can i use 500g/250g of cream cheese instead of 1kg of cream cheese ? If do so, the other ingredients may need to cut into half right? Hope to gt ur reply soon thanks..

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes you can, just reduce the cream mixture to half and use a smaller springform pan, a 8 inch springform  would work well. I wouldn't reduce the oreo crust to half, I would use about 150-180 g crumbs.

    2. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Let me know if any other questions.

  40. Rima Author says:

    Hi I used marcarpone cheese and when added extra thick double cream after mixing the mixture went wrong, like with acid. Should I use philadelphia next time?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes.. certainly  🙂 I've never made a cheesecake with Masscarpone cheese instead of the cream cheese. I sometimes use cream cheese and Mascarpone together but in that case no heavy cream needed. Next time try the philadelphia type with cold heavy cream.

  41. Cheryl Author says:

    Hello! May I know what’s the music you used for the video and are these ingredients only for 1 kilogram cake?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      We have purchased the song from Audio Network. Here is the link: https://www.audionetwork.com/production-music/slow-down_93778.aspx

      The cake will have more than 1 kg, as only the cream cheese is 1 kg without adding the rest of ingredients. I think it will be around 1,8 kg to 1.9 kg.

  42. Tiffany Author says:

    Hi I have a question. How do you prevent the cheesecake from cracking? As it was baking I saw the it fluffed up and started cracking. When it was done baking, it “deflates.”
    Btw it still tasted amazing! Just asking for aesthetics wise 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Did you use a higher temperature, or bake it more than 45-50 minutes?  Yes, it deflates after you turn off the heat.  I always bake my cheesecakes to 300 F (150 C) for max 45-60 mins , depending on the size pan used, and if made this way it shouldn't crack. In this case as you add Nutella topping nobody will ever know it cracked 🙂

  43. Heather Author says:

    Everyone loved this, it made 16 servings! I forgot the cornstarch which left the Nutella layer more mousse-like, not a bad thing! I was wondering if the cookies (250 g) is before or after the frosting is removed for measuring weight; 1 package or Oreos, regardless, was plenty. How much in a cup measurement would we need of crumbs as I prefer to buy just Oreo crumbs? Could I use peanut butter instead of Nutella with no other conversions, could I triple the peanut butter or Nutella and not have a layered cheesecake but a whole-flavored one? I’ve been searching and trying PB cheesecake recipes and none live up to my expectations but this, with the cream, made the best textured cheesecake I’ve ever had! I will make homemade Nutella next time too as I don’t like their ingredients/amount of sugar.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      The 250 g is for crumbs, after the cream was removed.  The package I've used had only 170 g each, that's why I had to use 2 packages. Didn't measure the crumbs in cups, as you can see I put them directly on the food processor, but probably 2 1/2 cups might be enough. I think that you can use peanut butter with this recipe, it will work well with the heavy cream. I would suggest to add the peanut butter gradually and taste the composition a bit to see if enough. I think 300 g of peanut butter will do fine, though. I also have a homemade Nutella recipe, if you want to give it a try. It is delicious and more nutty flavored. Check it out here:  https://www.homecookingadventure.com/homemade-nutella-chocolate-hazelnut-spread

  44. Gissel Author says:

    Hello!! I couldn’t wait to do it because I love nutella, who doesn’t? But i have 2 questions, can I just avoid the last layer? And do i need to refrigerate all night or it could be less? Can’t wait to try it!!! Thank you

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      You can avoid the last layer, the Nutella topping of course. But the Nutella flavor won't be so intense. It will still be delicious anyway. if you make it really early in the morning and have time to cool at room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 4 hrs I think it will be ok to serve it sooner. I always let it overnight, it's easier for me, I rarely bake at 7 or 8 am in the morning. 

  45. Zilly Author says:

    Hi, can I use a 8.5inch spring tray instead of 10inch? If yes, do I need to reduce the pouring portion? Just afraid it will overflow when bake. Rili would like to do it after watching ur demo here 🙂 thanks for sharing!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Zilly, I am really glad you want to try this cheesecake. For a 8.5 inch pan you can try reducing to half the pouring ingredients. I would probably use like 150 -200 g oreo crumbs for the crust. I use heavy cream or whipping cream in this recipe as while mixing together with the cream cheese it whips and make the mixture a bit fluffy, which allows creating the 2 layers. Mix the cream cheese with heavy/whipping cream enough to let the cream whip a bit. Otherwise the Nutella layer doesn't sit on top of the other. It is also important to use cold heavy/whipping cream, for better results. Also, don't try using Macarpone instead of regular cream cheese as it won't work. Some tried and didn't work well. Hope my answer helps. Let me know if any other questions:) and let me know how it turns for you.

  46. Greta Author says:

    hello,i wuold like to ask, if for cream cheese i could use mascarpone? 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      No, Masscarpone won't work at all. some already tried and was a disaster. Try to use ricotta cheese, Philadeplhia or something similar, a creamy fresh cheese. 

  47. patricia Author says:

    Hi I just attempted to make this cheesecake. When i put the nutella mixture ontop of the white cream cheese it mixed in together. Not to sure why this happend. If you have any ideas as to why this has happened please let me know. Thanks

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, I know why. It is very important the  step with mixing of cream cheese with heavy cream. You have to mix them more so to allow heavy/whipping cream to whip a bit to create a more fluffy mixture that allows creating the two different layers. I have mentioned this in step 4 in the description. But don't worry, it is still delicious even with a marbled effect 🙂

  48. mace Author says:

    What if I wanna make a small cheesecake lets say 6-8 servings, aside from cutting all the ingredients in half, what else should I change? Would the baking time also be cut in half? I wanna make 2 small cheesecakes instead. Thank you!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      You can make smaller size cheesecake, just reduce the cream mixture to half and use a smaller springform pan, a 8 inch springform  would work well. I wouldn't reduce the oreo crust to half, I would use about 150-180 g crumbs. Baking time shouldn't be reduced to half, the crust still needs 13-15 minutes of baking and also together with the filling I would still bake it for 40-45 minutes, and after heat is turned off still leave it in the oven for 50-60 minutes more.

    Can this be made without the eggs??!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, you can make a Nutella cheesecake without baking, no eggs needed here. Make the crust and refrigerate until the cream is ready. Beat cream cheese with sugar and vanilla. Don't use the cornstarch here, as it is not necessary. I would suggest to whip the cream separately and then gently fold it in the cream cheese mixture. Separate and mix 1/3 of mixture with Nutella. Add the mixtures over the crust. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Hope it works well, never tried it like this.

  50. Clara Victoria Author says:

    Hi! It seems to be a very good cheesecake and I’m so excited about trying it out.
    But I’m confused a little bit: how many eggs exactly do you use? I’m not sure if I missed this information.

    Thank you!!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      There are four eggs in the feeling 🙂 All the ingredients are listed under the Ingredients before the description.

  51. Mateus Author says:

    Hi, Thanks for the recipe, it work out just fine. =) Greetings from Brazil =)

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      So glad to hear that 🙂 Thank you for writing me back with your review 

  52. David Pilcha Author says:

    Hi there 🙂 I have a question.
    When I put the cake into the oven it rose by
    about 3 cm. I followed the ingredients and the instructions.
    Thank you for the recipe and happy belated birthday.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, the cheesecake rise in the oven a bit, but after you turn off the heat it deflates slowly. This is how it supposed to be. If the temperature is not too big, it won't crack on the surface.

  53. Ana Author says:

    Hi, the nutella cream was mixed with cream cheese , went wrong , why?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I know what went wrong, I mentioned in the directions that the step of mixing the cream cheese with heavy/whipping cream is very important as you have to mix enough to allow the heavy/whipping cream to whip a bit. You can see the difference, it's more fluffy and thicker.. this allows you to create the two different layers.

  54. Diana Author says:

    Do you need to grease te pan ??

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      No.. greasing the pan is not necessary, some times I use parchment paper to protect the bottom from the sharp knife.

  55. Milena Author says:

    Hi dear! Congratulations for your cheesecake! I’ve got one doubt, though:
    3/4 cup (175g) heavy cream + 2 tbsp, cold – does that mean that we should put 3/4 cup AND 2 tbsp of the same heavy cream? That was not so clear…
    Thank you in advance, and as I’m brazilian, I can translate if you wish.
    Xoxo

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, it's the same heavy/whipping cream but the 2 tbsp are used on the Nutella mixture only. First you mix the cream cheese with 3/4 cup heavy cream.. do the rest of the steps and  remove 1/3 of it. In that 1/3 reserved mixture you add Nutella and these 2 tbsp  of heavy cream. Let me know if any other questions.

  56. Ali Author says:

    Hi gorgeous! I obsolutelly try this today 🙂 thanks for sharing this .
    I will let you know how does it goes… BTW I’m from Cancún 🙂

    XOXO!!

  57. Jumanah Author says:

    Hello
    I have just made this cheesecake, but I don’t know why it got broken in the center of it? 🙁
    And I also feel that the part where we mix the Nutella with the cream is not really done yet? Even though it has been in the oven exactly as you have said?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hmm.. hard to tell if I wasn't there to see. Did you bake it and then turned off the heat and let the cheesecake in the oven for another hour? Cheesecakes usually continue to bake after removing from the oven that is why they also need to chill overnight to set before serving.  If it cracked in the middle is it possible you set the oven to a higher temperature? It really needs to bake at lower temperature so it cooks slowly and this way it won't crack on top. What type of cream cheese did you use. There are many possibilities.. Let me know how it turned for you after all.

  59. Sofia Author says:

    Hi!…. I’m Portuguese and liked to make this recipe tomorrow, looks delicious … but I don’t know what is cream cheese and marking will buy …. any suggestions? And what care should I have for the layers do not mix?
    sorry my english and thank you 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Sofia, cream cheese is actually a creamy fresh cheese, you can use Philadelphia type, but it's quite expensive you can also use Ricotta Cheese instead or any other local creamy fresh cheese. Don't use Mascarpone as it won't work. When you mix the heavy/whipping cream with the cream cheese make sure you mix them while enough so the heavy/whipping cream have time to whip a bit as this is very important, that is the trick to allow you create the 2 different layers. Let me know if any other questions and hope you will let me know how it turned for you.

  60. liza Author says:

    Hi!! I Have a cuestion, its really necesary the cornstarch?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      You can use flour instead. 

  61. Aimen Author says:

    Hey I really love this recipe and thanku so very much for sharing it with us ^_^
    I just wanted to ask that is cornstarch same as cornflour?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Glad you like this recipe. Well some say cornflour is the same with cornstarch though I think they are a bit different. If you don't have cornstarch just replace with all purpose flour, it will work good.

  62. SJ Author says:

    What were the dimensions of the cake pan you used? The cake looks awesome 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Thank you:) I am glad you like it. It is a 10 inch (26 cm) springform pan.

  63. Naye Author says:

    Hello, first, I have to tell you that I love your recipe. I’m trying to do your recipe, but I’m not sure what function I have to choose, because I have an electric oven… “roast, toast, pizza, heating up, or convection baking”.
    Also I want to ask you if I use the same time to cook, or if I have to change it.
    Have a nice day 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have used an electric oven as well. I used the regular baking function, not convection, mine said it is conventional. Do you have this?

  64. Sheena Author says:

    My cheesecake came out wobbly, should i bake it some more?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Cheesecakes are supposed to be a bit wobbly even after the cooking time is done, as they continue to cook while chilling. And also they set overnight. That is the reason you can never serve a cheesecake in the same day and it is necessary to chill overnight. How did it turned out after all?

  65. agnese Author says:

    Hi, your cheesecake looks wonderful. I want to try it for future events. Would it be possible to make ahead and keep it in the freezer till the day of the event?
    Thanks,
    Agnese

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have never frozen a cheesecake, I am not sure how it would behave. Isn't it possible to make it with 2 days in advance and refrigerate? It will be as good.

  66. Doris Author says:

    I just want to know how many packages I have to use for cream cheese.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Depending on the package, I have used 4  (9 oz -250g) packages.

  67. JJ Author says:

    Hi, would like to check with you whether I can put the Nutella layer AFTER I set the cake in the fridge overnight?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes.. you definitely can add the last Nutella topping after is set in the fridge.

  68. Lailabakes Author says:

    Great recipe and beautiful pictures. Just one question, I bake by metric weights, however, based on the Nutella jar I have 2 tablespoons is 37 grams. That makes 2/3 cup of Nutella around 200 g. Should I use the weight in recipe of 100 g or volume of 2/3 cup? thank you

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I think you can use about 100 g up to 150 g.  It should work good, no need for more. 

  69. Lailabakes Author says:

    Thank you.. I did use 150 g in batter and 100 in topping .. it made it really rich and delish. this cheesecake is in my fridge now.. I could not stop eating the batter, it is so good. Thank you for a great recipe.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      So glad it turned good for you Lailain 🙂 Yes.. the batter is incredible creamy and delicious. Thank you for writing me back with a review. 

  70. Thomai Author says:

    Very good! Congratulations for the recipe! I changed a little bit the recipe as i used 800gr cream cheese because i was afraid it to be too “cheesy” and chocolate chip cookies for the crust to replace the oreo cookies. It was really delicious! Thanks a lot as here in Greece most people make nutella cheesecqke without baking it. This version is much better! I will soon try the other recipes too!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      So glad you enjoyed this recipe, and thank you for writing me back with a review. Greece is so beautiful will have to visit some day 🙂

  71. mmmnutella Author says:

    Im going to try this in the no bake method. to make sure the white and nutella mixture dont mix together, can I first add the white layer, refrigerate for a few hours and then add the nutella mixture and refrigerate again ?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes, It's good. Probably you don't have to wait hours until adding the next layer. Yesterday I've made a no bake layered cheesecake, something similar and did like this: Oreo Crust, u can use with the filling this time, combine with butter and press well on the bottom of a pan. Freeze until you prepare the first layer, about 10 minutes. Combine cream cheese with some sugar, you can use powdered sugar. Separately whip heavy cream and then fold in with the cream cheese. Of course, add vanilla or whatever flavor you want. Pour over the crust and let it set in the freezer for few minutes until you prepare the nutella layer. It is best to whip heavy cream separately so you have a thick cream in the end. Gently and gradually add the nutella layer on top, and refrigerate for few hours or better overnight. Hope it helps, let me know how it turns for you.

  72. Cassondra Martin Author says:

    My daughter and I are looking forward to making this on the weekend. It looks amazing and so easy to make! I wanted to ask if you’ve ever done this using a pre-done Oreo cookie pie shell? I don’t have a springform pan, so I want to use the pie crust but wasn’t sure if the recipe makes too much to fit it in one.

    Thank you so much for listing the nutritional value as well! My daughter is a type 1 diabetic so we have to keep track of carbs in order to get the correct insulin dose…this really helps!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Cassondra, I am really glad you like the recipe. I have never made it with a pre done Oreo cookie pie shell. Where I live I don't find it in stores. If you are talking about this 6 oz pie crust  I think you will have to reduce the ingredient to half. It doesn't seem like a 10 inch diameter pie crust, or tall enough. So I would simply reduce to half the filling and see how it works.

  73. Fernanda Mascarenhas Author says:

    Hello , good evening .

    I wonder if you can post this recipe in Portuguese , because the translations of computers are not understandable .

    await you anxious. kisses.

      We are working on this actually, YouTube will have this translated in Portuguese and Spanish. Hope soon.Will let you know.

  74. Teodora Author says:

    I got a question: I want to make the same recipe of cheesecake but for 6 persons. Can you tell me the ingredients weight for a cheesecake for 6 persons? Not for 12-16.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes you can, just reduce the cream mixture and Nutella topping to half and use a smaller springform pan, a 8 inch springform  would work well. I wouldn't reduce the oreo crust to half, I would use about 150-180 g crumbs (18-20 cookies )and about 50 g (3 tbsp) of butter.

  75. Mariam Author says:

    Hi!
    Can I replace heavy cream with sweetened condensed milk?
    if not, can u plz tell me how much whipping cream should i use? with th 2/3 mixture and with the 2/3 nutella?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      You can not replace heavy cream with sweetened condensed milk. Use the same amount of whipping cream as for heavy cream.

  77. Ros Author says:

    Hi there, I love studying this recipe and the final test is baking them. I have only 8″ round cake tin, and I’m on a budget, and diet :-). Here, in Malaysia, cream cheese can be expensive. Is it possible to somehow scale this recipe down to fit 8″ cake tin? I don’t want to have such a thick cake, since the one in the picture looks just perfect. Thanks.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes you can, just reduce the cream mixture and Nutella topping to half and use a 8 inch springform  pan. I wouldn't reduce the oreo crust to half, I would use about 150-180 g crumbs (18-20 cookies )and about 50 g (3 tbsp) of butter for the crust. Let me know if any other questions.

  78. Elisangela dias Author says:

  79. JJ Author says:

    can I bake this cake in a toaster oven? If so, what are the precautions? Thanks in advance 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have never tried.. as I don't have a toaster oven but read about it and it seems that other succeeded on baking a cheesecake in it. Place the cake on the bottom rack and should work well.

  80. Tyy Author says:

    If i use 500 g of cream cheese, should i cut down the eggs and cornstarch to half?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes.. and use a smaller springform pan, a 8 inch springform  would work well. I wouldn't reduce the oreo crust to half, I would use about 150-180 g crumbs (18-20 cookies )and about 50 g (3 tbsp) of butter.

  81. Kasey Author says:

    Made this today and I’m anxious to see what it tastes like tomorrow. This is my first cheesecake ever and I’m not sure if I’ve made it right. It seemed to rise on the edges and sink in the middle. It’s also spongy like, not sure if that is how baked cheesecake is before it’s cooled completely. Also the outside edges (the part against the pan) seem to look carmalized?? Or it had that coloring to it. It surely didn’t look like the video/pictures lol. Any suggestions on how to keep it from sinking in the middle or cook more evenly? I had to cut it down on the edges to make it level and I’m not sure why it did that. Could the humidity where I’m at affect how it comes out? Thanks in advance for the help 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Maybe it's the oven, did you bake at the right temperature? It has to be a constant temperature in all oven. I have an electric oven and this works great. I don't know if humidity would affect the cheesecake.. I'd rather blame the oven. But.. hope it tastes great… Let me know.

  82. judy Author says:

    I can’t wait to make tho cake! Is it possible to bake this cake and freeze? Or how many days in advance can I make it before eating it?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have never frozen a cheesecake.. but you can make it with about 2 days in advance.. and refrigerate. One day in advance is necessary anyway to allow the cheesecake to set.

  83. salley Author says:

    Is the cake ok if still wobbly in the centre after baking and cooling in oven

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      yes.. it still needs to set while cooling at room temperature and then in the fridge overnight. That is the reason it is important to make the cheesecake a day before serving.

  84. Trina Author says:

    Hi, I have a 6″ spring form pan, may I know how to reduce the portion of the ingredients. I would like to try making it.
    Thank you for your help 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I would say to try reduce everything to half.. it might get a taller cheesecake but still delicious.

  85. Chantal Author says:

    Hi there! I’m currently making the cake, just turned off the oven. I understood your advice to beat the cream cheese with the heavy cream long enough until it becomes fluffy but it my case the more I beat the more liquid it became! The heavy Cream was at room temperature. Could that be the problem? Or should I have been more patient and try to beat the mixture even more? Or could it be a solution to beat the heavy cream seraratly until getting a good whipped cream and then mix gently with the cheese+sugar+starch+Eggs mix? Thanks in advance!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I've mentioned that it is important for the cream to be cold, eitherwise it won't whip well. I think this was the problem. It's not necessary to whip separately.  Hope it will work better next time.

  86. Lee Author says:

    Hi, Greetings from Israel!! I prepared this cheesecake for a Shavuot holiday contest at work and won first place!! Although so many things went wrong during the cake’s preparation, I wasn’t even sure I wanted to enter it…
    First, I am not sure we have heavy cream in my country, and I didn’t see that 38% whipped cream can be used… so I used the 22% whipped cream I had at home, which probably didn’t have enough substance. Then when I poured the chocolaty layer on top of the white one, it fell in (there was a brown ring inside the white one). I continued to the baking step, but forgot to lower the temperature to 150 degrees, so I accidentally baked it at 180 degrees for 55 minutes. I did all the rest as stated in the recipe. Despite everything, it turned out delicious and not a crumb was left.
    So, don’t despair if it doesn’t come out as beautiful… it’s still delicious!!
    Thank you for a great recipe 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Lee:) thank you for your comment.. so glad you won first place. I really enjoyed reading your story.. was so fun to read.. .. anyway.. heavy cream is actually whipping cream between 36%-40% fat.. so if you have 38% is actually heavy whipping cream:) 22% is just not good:) you need 30% or more ..but I am sure it was delicious:) those layers are just for visual effect.. they don't  change the taste anyway.. glad you liked it:)

  87. Paty Author says:

    Greetings from Spain! I’m preparing this cake for a birthday party next weekend because it looks sooo delicious, but I don’t have time to make it on Saturday so it will be ready on Sunday. Can I make it on thursday or friday and still be good for Sunday? What is your suggestion for the best preservation?

    Thank you for such a great recipe!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sure.. just make it on Friday.. it will be great, and just keep it refrigerated. It lasts more than 4 days if refrigerated. Make sure you use cold heavy cream or whipping cream so while mixing it with cream cheese to whip a bit and get a bit fluffy. This makes possible the 2 layers. 

  88. Ina Author says:

    Can i use a 9inch pan without reducing any of the ingredients? How about cooking time?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I think you can.. it's not such a big difference. You may leave it for 1 hr instead of 45 mins in the oven  and then turn off the heat and leave it another hour in the oven. It should be fine

  89. Shaz Author says:

    Hello! Greetings from Singapore! I baked this cake for my dad’s birthday last month and it was amazing! Gonna bake again for a friend tonight. Awesome video, instructions were all clear. Thank you.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Now that is so great to hear Shaz 🙂 I really try my best to make it all clear for everybody.. but there are still people who don't succeed in making this recipe.  Thank you for  coming back with such a great review. More to come.. so stay in touch  🙂

  90. Lynn Author says:

    Hi Ella! Greetings from Singapore! I would love to make one without having to bake it. Have you heard of any success stories from your readers? I’ve seen the comments on how to do it without baking it. Would just like to know if it works. And since no baking is involved, do I need to add gelatin into the cream cheese mixture? Definitely love this cheesecake! And your instructions are easy to follow. Thank you so much! 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      None of them came back with a review,  but I have tried a no bake cheesecake recently.. made one with 3 different layers (white.. chocolate and strawberry) for my daughter anniversary and  didn't post it on the blog yet.. but turned absolutely great.. I did use gelatin for each layer as I wanted to make sure it holds ok.. as it was quite big. For a 12 inch springform pan  I made each layer from 1 pound (500g) cream cheese and 2 cups whipped cream (400 g) + up to 1/2 cup powdered sugar. 10 g of gelatin was enough for this dissolved in about 4 tbsp (60g) of water and than heated to turn liquid. Make the oreo crust, add the white layer, refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.  For the Nutella layer just mix nutella with the creamcheese mixture and pour over the white mixture. Refrigerate until set, up to 4 hrs.

  91. Karis Author says:

    i am enquiring what size eggs to use medium or large? Live in the UK and hoping to make tomorrow?
    Cake looks amazing! Hoping mine looks somewhere near.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sorry for the late answer. Medium or large eggs are fine. Did you try it out after all? I am curious how it turned for you.

  92. Maria Author says:

    Hi!

    Hi! This looks so delicious. I think my boyfriend and neighbors would love this. What is the name the pan you used to have your pie looking like that?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It is a 10 inch springform pan, with removable base.

  95. Ina Author says:

    Hi! I tried baking these cheesecake and it had a huge y crack in the middle. it was ok after the initial baking, after the other hour allowance, it had a crack? also, for the nutella topping, it somehow curdled and became grainy. not at all smooth like in your video. what did i do wrong? Im a first time cheesecake baker. i only do cookies at home. 🙂 i was so impressed with your cheesecake and it looked easy to make. 🙂 my cheesecake is at the ref for now. hope it tastes good tomorrow.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sorry for the late answer… So how did it turned after all? It might have cracked because of the oven temperature? Did you turn it off after the first hour of baking? Not sure why the Nutella became grainy.. all I can think of is that cream might have been too hot.

  96. Jen Author says:

    Im not seeing my posts here. Is it blocked? I’ll be doing it this week, and would like to know if I can use brown sugar or muscovado sugar to substitute the white sugar?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

       It was not blocked just didn't have time to approve it. Sorry for that. You can definitely use brown sugar to substitute. It will work good. It might make the white layer darker in color but if this is ok with you.. go ahead 🙂 It will be delicious.

    is the almost best best best cheesecake all i wished

      Glad you like it:) Let me know if you ever try it out:)

  98. Ja9 Author says:

    Hello, I want to make this however I don’t own any spring form pans as I would have to use pre-made Oreo crusts. As you know these are much smaller than any 8″ pan and are much more shallow. In order to have every layer, should I cut the whole recipe in half? Thank you!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      i am not sure halving the recipe will be enough. The springform pan is really important as it holds the cake until it is completely set.

  99. Corey Author says:

    Would all the cheesecake filling fit in a 9 inch cheesecake pan.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I think a 9 inch pan will be fine for this … a bit more taller but as good.

  100. Alex Author says:

    Hi ive already left a comment in here … No reply is it blocked here…

    I baked the cheesecake for 45 mins and left it in the oven for another hour as indicated. After the one hour, the cheesecake was still wobbly and i cooked it for another 10 minutes. It is still wobbly. What shall we do?

    Help pls…….

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      This is the first comment I receive from you..anyway..  I think the cheesecake turned right for you.. you just need to wait to set.. That is why the cheesecakes can not be served in the day you prepare because it still need to set in the fridge overnight. Just let it cool at room temperature and after is cooled refrigerate overnight.. let me know how it turned after the whole chilling time

  101. Nur Hanum Author says:

    Very nice this one. But. Can i ask u, about
    3/4cup(175g) heavy cream + 2tbsp, cold.
    Could you please explain to me more details ?
    Thank you :-*
    From malaysian

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      You just have to read the directions or watch the video and all will be clear.. you use the 3/4 cup heavy cream at the beginning when mixed with cream cheese.. after you separate the 1/3 of the mixture  into another bowl.. add Nutella over the 1/3 mixture and the 2 tbsp of cream. (here are used the 2 tbsp of cream).  Let me know if you try it out:)

  102. Mariana Author says:

    This cake looks great!!! Just one question. Is the cream cheese like “Philadelphia ” type? Or is another one?
    Thank you very much

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      yes.. Philadelphia type..doesn't have to be Philadelphia, I have used a different local brand and worked great.

    Hi – Do you think i could substitute the oreos with digestive biscuits? And do you think the combination would work?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sure you can.. it will be delicious as well.

  104. Travis Author says:

    Is there any reason you used Oreo cookies with cream removed instead of Oreo baking crumbs. I ask because the crumbs seem like an easier option and wanna know if it makes a difference.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      The only reason I've used Oreo cookies instead of crumbs is that I have visitors from many countries.. and it seems that crumbs are not to be found everywhere. If you have the possibility to buy crumbs.. then go ahead.. it's definitely easier.

  105. Hafsa Author says:

    Heloo this recipe is absolutly worth trying but plzz explain you add eggs in the video recipe and didnt mention in written.. should i add eggs or not ?? Plz rply soon tomarrow is my sis birthday and i gonna bake it tomarrow ..

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sorry.. just noticed your comment.. so.. the eggs are mentioned in the step 4.. in the description. You just have to add them one at a time. Let me know if any other questions.

    Hello Ella,
    Greetings from Indonesia. I love ur recipe. I’ve tried ur creme caramel recipe & got the result not pretty good but the taste was so yummy! Tomorrow is my fiance bday, so I’d love to try this recipe for his bday cake. I’ve saw other comments & questions but I still have questions. 1) Before I put a parchment paper on the bottom springpan bottom, should I grease it? 2) Is it possible for me to get enough result if I only advance the cake less than 2 days? Thanks. GBU.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sorry for the late answer.. you can grease the bottom or not.. but if you want to make sure it really works good you can slightly grease the pan.  Did you try the cheesecake after all? I am curious if it turned good for you. You can make a day before the serving and it's just perfect.

    HI!!! Greetings from Italy!!
    I uses mascarpone. Did I wrong??? Thanks =)

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Mascarpone won't work in creating the two layers.. how did it work for you?

  110. João Wagner Author says:

    HI, I’m from Brazil and here don’t have heavy cream, what ingredient I use to replace it? thks

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Whipping cream, will be as good, 30 to 35% fat. 

  111. Thamyres Author says:

    Boa tarde… Sou do Brasil e gostaria de saber se a medida do Cream cheese está correta!!! 1 Kg não é mta coisa????

  112. Fahimah Author says:

    I have made this cake twice and both times it’s been a HUGE success. My favourite Nutella recipe by far. Thank you so much for sharing!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am so happy to hear that Fahimah.. glad it turned so good for you too:)

  113. Anum Author says:

    Hi! I am currently trying this recipe however I felt my Nutella reserved mixture was not enough to add another layer. It ended up mixing in with my spatula with the cheese below even though i had whipped it for quite some time. Perhaps 1/3 cup cheese is not enough and I may add more next time. Hoping it turns out okay regardless!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It was not supposed to be 1/3 cup cheese mixture.. It was supposed to be 1/3 (one third) of the cheese mixture.

  114. James Author says:

    Hi, I had one problem with this recipe, when I tried pouring on the Nutella mixed layer of cream onto the normal layer of cream, they ended up mixing together and I had to end up making it a marble design.

    You have any advice to prevent this from happening again when I try this recipe again in the future? I say when instead of if because I baked this for my sister’s 27th birthday and she LOVED it, so I have to make it again at some point.

    Thank you for the recipe, even in failure, it was an amazing cheesecake.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am sure it was delicious, don't consider it a failure, it tasted the same. Nobody needed to know it was supposed to be in layers 🙂  The reason they mixed is because you didn't mix the cream and cream cheese together for a longer time to allow the cream to whip a bit, becomes thicker and fluffy. This is what makes possible the two layers effect. It is really important to use cold cream, other wise it won't whip enough. I usually use cream that was refrigerated at least 1 day before serving. Hope you will try it one more time.

  115. Chloe Author says:

    Hi! I made this recipe last night and turned out great but the nutella mixture sank in so how do I avoid it?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It is important to use cold heavy/whipping cream and mix it enough with the cream cheese until you feel the cream has whipped a bit. That's the secret to creating the two different layers. Mentioned in step 4. Hope you will try it one more time.

  116. Johanna Author says:

    Hi! Greetings from Colombia!
    I love the recipe, love the video and love how you make it so easy for us to follow the instructions.
    I tried this once and had the same problem of the two layers mixing, now i know the heavy cream needs to be cold, the other ingredients need to be cold to?
    Now, I don’t have this springform pan, can i use a regular pan, if yes, how do i take out the cheescake, last time i tried to put it inside out and it totally worked but im afraid it wont work the next time.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It is important for the cream to be cold, the others are ok at room temperature. It's definitely harder without a springform pan, I think I would just serve it from there, would be afraid it breaks.

  117. Sara Author says:

    Hi,
    The cheesecake was delicious. But I had the same problem as many others, with the chocolate falling straight into the rest. I saw the reviews before making it, so I refrigerated the whipping cream and cheese, and I blended the mixture for quite a long time to make sure that that wouldn’t happen. Still did…. wondering if you have any idea what I could have done wrong? I’m a baking newbie so maybe there was something else I didn’t realize I should have done?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      If it sank probably you should have mix it some more. I used room temperature cream cheese to make it easier on mixing. Only the whipping cream was cold. I am not sure if this would make a difference next time. Hope you will try it one more time:)

  118. Kaja Author says:

    Hi! This cheesecake is the best, I only have one small question. Can I substitute cream cheese with mascarpone?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am glad you like it. You can not use Mascarpone, it won't work, will be a completely fail. Some already tried and were really disappointed.

  119. Candace Author says:

    This looks great! I’ve made it and it is currently finishing the hour in the oven. But I just realized that I was supposed to add the Nutella to the 1/3 reserved mixture…whoops! I Think it will still be great. Im making this time around as a test for my friend’s birthday. So I’ll change it then!
    Thanks for the great recipe!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      So.. how did it turned? I am sure it was delicious this way too:)

  121. Malliga Author says:

    Hi, the cheesecake turnt out fine but there was a crack at the centre when I took it out from the oven. Over time, the crack grew bigger as I left it to cool down in room temperature. May I know why is this so? This is my first time attempting to bake a cheesecake. Thanks!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hmm.. it's weird how the crack grew bigger even at room temperature. Usually a cheesecake cracks when the temperature is too high, next time try to reduce the oven temperature a bit, and when leaving to cool in the oven for an hour, open slightly the door. Ovens can be calibrated differently  and  we need thermometer to see if it really heats to the required temperature.This is what I would do, and if this wouldn't work I would consider baking the cheesecake in water bath (putting the pan in a larger one and put hot water around, up to half). 

  122. Ruxandra Author says:

    Hi! I want to make this,never made a cheesecake before only cakes. And I was wondering what brand of cream cheese filling did you use? And if the cream cheese is the same thing as the cream cheese filing. Thank you!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Eu folosesc mai nou pt cheesecake branza proaspata de la Delaco, cea de 4.4% grasime. Sigur o gasesti la supermarket. Cheesecake filling e mixul de crema de branza cu oua. zahar.. etc. Daca mai ai intrebari sa imi spui.

  123. Rizka Author says:

    Hi, I’ve been wanting to try this ever since I saw this post. I just want a small suggestion though. What is the right consistency of the cream cheese filling so that the nutella layer doesn’t sink in? How can I make sure its whipped enough?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      The secret is to use cold whipping cream or heavy cream. Mix it enough time with the cream cheese until you feel the mixture got fluffy and the cream has whipped. This makes possible the two layer effect.

  124. Wilson Author says:

    Can i use whipping cream instead of heavy cream?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sure.. Use at least 30% fat, I've used 35-36% fat, and worked great.

  125. Agustina Author says:

    Hello! I’m reading all the comments expecting to do it all right tomorrow. I have a question, wich is (aproximate) the time I should mix the heavy cream with the cream cheese? Just to get an idea … could something go wrong if I do it for too much time? or is it better to do it for a while because nothing wrong could happen. Sorry for my english, greetings from Argentina 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Well I can't really remember – probably between 5-10 minutes .. you will feel when it's whipped as it gets fluffy and airy.. Make sure you use really cold heavy cream, that is really important otherwise it won't whip well

  126. Hi, awesome recipe!! Quick question what the name of the song played in the video?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Glad you like both the recipe and music. Here it is: here it is https://www.audionetwork.com/production-music/slow-down_93778.aspx

  128. ????????????????????baking powder????

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      no need for baking powder in this recipe, I've used some cornstarch.

  129. svenja Author says:

  130. I halved this recipe as I had only 500g of cream cheese.. It turned out perfectly! The layers were beautiful! I used thickened cream as I couldn’t find heavy cream.. It’s heavenly! Thank u so much for the recipe!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

    my baking pan is 24cm, should i reduce amount of all ingredients and how much then?
    and can i use potato starch instead of cornstarch? thanks

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      if you have a 24 baking pan the recipe will work as it is.. I am sure of it.. Will be just a bit taller which is great too.. I am sure you can use potato starch also.. sorry for the late answer.. getting on track after moving to a new place

  134. Hi again….I don’t know if my last comment went through or not, but anyway, I forgot to ask…..when you gave the nutritional value, you mentioned one serving is 516 calories…..how much is one serving in grams?
    And again, thanks for a delicious recipe.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      right .. for a serving size of 140 g .. you got 516 calories.. will add this to the recipe too.. thank you for noticing

  135. Janice Author says:

    Greetings from Malaysia! =)
    May I know the speed of the mixture when you mix the heavy cream with cream cheese?
    Low , medium or high speed?
    Thank you!!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Welcome Janice.. and sorry for the late answer.. I've been moving to a new house and had a lot to pack and unpack.. so.. I;ve used high speed to beat the cream cheese with heavy cream. Hope you will try the recipe and let me know how it turns for you

  136. Janice Author says:

    Helli, greetings from Malaysia.
    1. May I know the speed of the mixture machine when you mix the cream cheese with cream? Slow, medium or fast? 1,3 or 5?
    2. And before you mix the cream, will you whip the cream cheese 1st?
    thank you very much!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sorry for the late answer as mentioned before.. I've used high speed and beat them together.. not separately.. just make sure to use cold whipping/heavy cream.. otherwise it won't whip well

  137. Khadeeja Khalid Author says:

    Can we quarter the recipe..?? If we can.. Can you tell me the exact measurements and timings..?? Please

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I would rather half the recipe and use a  8 inch (20 cm) pan.. believe me it's not too much.. 

    2. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      just check the cheesecake after 45 minutes… might be enough.. and then turn off the oven and let it cool slightly

  138. Khadeeja Khalid Author says:

    Can we quarter the recipe..?? If so then can you tell me the exact timings and measurements please..???

    Hey,

    My cream cheese mixture was a bit lumpy. Is that gonna turn out weird? I hope it turns out ok coz the cake is for my husbands birthday!

      It should have turned ok.. if you let it set in fridge overnight.. How was it after all?

  143. Alondra Author says:

    What would be the reductions to using a 9in pan

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I wouldn't do any reduction.. it will just be a bit more taller but that's fine

  144. Cheang Author says:

    hi, thank for sharing the recipe, but i failed twice doing it. Do you bake it 150C with fan or without? my cake is watery after baking for an hour and another hour leaving it in the oven. I took it out and leave it to cool for 15min, and when i tried to open the springfoam it just collapse…..

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hmm.. I am wondering what type of cream cheese did you use.. hopefully not Mascarpone. I set my oven as I usually do for baking, no fan.. conventional, heat coming from top and bottom as well.

  145. Smita Chaphekar Author says:

    I did whatever was shown in the video. Baked the cake for 50 minutes as mentioned but still it is wobbly. Have also kept the cake to cool down bit still it’s wobbly. I am very disappointed ????. Please tell me what do I do now.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It is normal to be wobbly even after baking.. let it cool at room temperature and refrigerate for at least 4 -6 hours to set. I usually refrigerate overnight. Only then is good for serving. 

  146. Hi Ella- my son went through a very hard diet the last 3 weeks..he will have a MMA fight on weekend and he had to loose some weight….. and his wish for his special food after the competition is this Nutella Cheesecake- and it will be a pleasure for me to make this for him- Thank you for all the special resipes you post for us.

  148. Syed Ahsan Ali Author says:

    I was so delighted to come across this recipe and thank you so much for it.
    Since i don’t have an oven, i went with the no bake method you described in the comments. Followed every step as you mentioned especially beating the whipped cream separately then adding it to the cream cheese. Refrigerated it for a good 6 hours and it came out brilliantly.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am so glad to hear that 🙂 Must have been as delicious 

  149. Isabela Author says:

    Awesome recipe!!!
    I just have a trouble: I’m allergic to eggs! Is that possible to do it without eggs?
    Thank you so much!!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Yes..you can make a Nutella cheesecake without baking, no eggs needed here. Make the crust and refrigerate until the cream is ready. Beat cream cheese with sugar and vanilla. Don't use the cornstarch here, as it is not necessary. I would suggest to whip the cream separately and then gently fold it in the cream cheese mixture. Separate and mix 1/3 of mixture with Nutella. Add the mixtures over the crust. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.

  150. Janice Author says:

    Hello, Is me again Janice from Malaysia. Thanks for the reply! Actually I have tried to make it, already 3 times, but it still fail. I will try to make again, this time i will use high speed & very cold of cream. Thanks for the advice! I will send you a post once I have success! Have a great day!! =)

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hope it will turn great this time.. not sure where you go wrong.. but even though the layers are not visible the taste is the same.. so hope you enjoyed it

  151. Tatyana Author says:

    I just followed the recipe step by step, I also used heavy cream (30% fat) but the batter came out really liquid. There is no way I can make two separate layers. I just poured the nutella batter and swirled it. I don’t understand how can one make two separate layers with a liquid cream cheese mix like this? I used my food processor to beat the cream cheese, sugar and eggs and I didn;t beat it too much, just enough to mix the ingredients. As i usually do. Fine if you’re making single layer. But two layers that don’t mix? Well, I am sure it will taste amazing with all the sugar, vanilla and nutella in it. I would love to make the layers though next time….

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Did you see the video? I've mixed the cream cheese together with the cold heavy cream (using a  hand mixer not a food processor in this case), quite a bit until it became fluffy and the cream whips. This is the secret for the 2 layers. Only then I incorporated the eggs. So the mixture is not as liquid as to a regular cheesecake..I am sutr it tasted great though.. just follow the steps as I did, and it will work.

  152. Vivian Author says:

    This cake taste like a piece of heaven.
    I made it to my daughters birthday, the cheesecake was the first of 11 cakes that were eaten and our guests loved it.
    It is the first baked cheesecake I have baked. In Greenland we don’t have heavy cream, but I used whipping cream instead, so it was a little answer to Tatyana, I might have made the same mistake. BUT it looked VERY delicious anyway and we loved it. And how many tablespoons vanillasugar Would you use instead of vanilla exatact? And is it possible to bake the cake in small creme brulee bowls?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am glad you enjoyed the recipe.. it is important to use cold heavy or whipping cream so it whips a bit while mixing together with the cream cheese. 2 tsp vanilla extract are 2 sachets of vanilla sugar.  You definitely can bake it in different pans and bowls but in this case it won't be possible to remove and will have to cut directly from there.

  153. Hey, I just made your cheesecake recipe and everything seemed to work the only problem was it would not layer properly, I used “thick cream” 46% fat, I bought Philadelphia light though could that be the cause?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Maybe it was the cream.. was it cold enough? It is really important to use cold refrigerated cream to whip well. And also mix the cream cheese together with the cream quite enough time to let the cream whip a bit, here is  the secret for 2 layers.

  154. Inge Author says:

    Hello, cake was great. I managed to get everything correctly, unfortunately the topping was to thin, the chocolate went to the side and left me thin layer of Nutella (I want thick one 🙂 ). I think next time, I will change the layer 1/3 of white and 2/3 of the nutella layer. I personally like the oreo crust layer not in the oven, make it harder and crunchy.
    Thanks for sharing this recipe!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am so glad it inspired you Inge.. I am sure everyone was delighted

  155. Liza Hassan Author says:

    Hi Ella!

    I just wanted to tell you that this recipe is totally awesome. I actually used the tweaked it by using Speculoos biscuits and spread instead of Oreo biscuits and Nutella. And everybody loved it!

    I am baking the original one right now based on your recipe for a family gathering tomorrow. Thank you so much for this 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I am so glad to hear that..I am sure it was a hit:)

  156. Beatrice Author says:

    Hiya, an eager viewer from the UK. I would love to make this for Boxing Day (26th December) for my partners family dinner. However, I doubt I’ll find the time to cook this on Christmas Day. Do you think I can make this 2-3 days in advance and will it still taste nice?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Sure.. making it with 2 days in advance will be just fine, refrigerate and you have it ready for Christmas:)

  157. Aliya Author says:

    I forgot to keep it for an hour in the oven

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hmm.. hope it will set well if refrigerated:) let me know

  158. Myriam Author says:

    Since I am allergic to nuts but I really wanted to try this cheesecake, I am about to try this with simply melted dark chocolate. Hopefully it turns out good!!!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

    tq..

  161. Can i add the cream from the cookies to the cream cheese filling? If it doesn’t mess up the recipe, i mean. I think it would give an extra flavour.

  165. Luka Author says:

    How many packages of Philly cream cheese? 5?
    Just confirming my match is correct.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      depends on how big the package is.. there are smaller and bigger ones.. just make sure to sum up to 35 oz (1 kg)

  166. Myriam Author says:

    Hi, I already made this cake with melted chocolate instead of Nutella since I am allergic to nuts, and it was very good. However, I want to try it with espresso powder, to add a coffee/mocha taste to it. Is this a good idea? If so, how much should I add? And should I add it to the cake itself, the ganache going on top or both? It is espresso powder and not instant coffee, so I know I don’t need much, but I wanted your opinion and advice on this. Thank you!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I really love the idea of adding espresso powder.. I would add in the cake itself and in ganache too, upon taste.. 🙂 

  167. Isabel Author says:

    Hey thabk you very much for this awesome recipe. But do you bake this cake on circulation air?
    Thank you 🙂

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      No.. top and bottom heat.. hope you will try it out

  168. Nicole Author says:

    Hi, I tried baking this yesterday, and refrigerated it overnight but my cream cheese filling is still too soft and it doesn’t stand on its own (it’s like liquid!). Is this because I beat the mixture for too long that it didn’t stay fluffy? or that I didn’t beat it enough? Still tasted great though, thanks! 🙂

  169. Nikki Author says:

    I absolutely love your recipe!!! So I’m not entirely sure what I did wrong…. but I just looked in the oven and my cheesecake fluffled up like a cake! O.O And the middle of it collapsed…. =/ It doesn’t look anything like yours. Did I do something wrong? It also seems like I had more batter than you did? I guess I’ll come back to update you of how the taste is tomorrow. Again thank you for this awesome recipe!

      I've used a 10 inch pan.. is it possible that the oven temperature to have been higher than 300F (150C)? It may rise a bit but once is cooling down it comes back to it's normal shape. I am curious how this turned for you after all..

    Thank you for this beautiful cheesecake! We had it for our Christmas dessert and everyone loved it (and luckily there was plenty left for breakfast the next day too!). Will absolutely make this again.

    Hi Ella
    This is my first writing to you. I tried lot of your recipes… really amazing…I made this cheese cake. I followed all the instructions, it was tasty…awesome…but unfortunately the middle portion was wobbly. I wanted to try again. any suggestions on what might be wrong..

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hi Darsy.. I am glad you tried many of my recipes.. not sure why the cheesecake turned wobbly to u. Did you  bake it for almost an hour.. let it another hour in the oven and then after cooled did you refrigerate it for at least 4-6 hours? All these steps are important to set the cheesecake.  Let me know so we can figure it out together.

  173. Hey, what is the song title you used for this video? I can’t seem to find it! Loved the song! And the recipie, good taste!

  174. Urska Author says:

    Hy, what is actually a cornstarch function? You use it a lot in your recipes… Thanks.

    can i use a blender for crushing the oreos instead of a food processor ? Also, is it fine if i use the left over cream of the oreos as topping of the cake

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE how this turned out. I made it yesterday and had it in the fridge overnight and over 24hrs and it tasted delicious. Thanks a ton for the yummy recipe. My family really enjoyed it. However I just have a few questions for the next time I make it (which is in 3days for my ma for mothers day)

    1 – BIG QUESTION.. I didnt use all of the creamcheese mixture and still think my cake had too much. Can I use less than 1kg of creamcheese. My kids are not big cheese fans so I am guessing around 600-700gms would be enough in my case. How does it change the quantity of the other ingredient i.e. sugar, eggs, double cream, nutella, cornstarch.

    2 – My crust base got stuck to the pan and made a right mess when cutting :(.. why did that happen.. is it because I didnt grease the pan?

    3 – Whats the life of this cake like? I made it yesterday.. would it still be good for 3-4days. Also, I am planning on freezing half of it.. is it a good idea?

    Soooo sorry for such a long message but the praises and the response from my family was so priceless, I cant help myself and make this my top bake choice for every occassion.. I look forward to your very kind reply.. TIA x

  177. I know this is a pretty remedial question but how do you get your Nutella to a consistency where it can be poured as it seems to be in the demonstration video?

    I know you’re not supposed to microwave it — do you stand the whole jar in a warm water bath?

    OH. MY. GOSH. I’ve made this cheesecake twice, and it is absolutely fantastic. I made it about two weeks ago for some friends, and they are STILL talking about it. It is the best cheesecake I’ve had in years. Thank you so much for such a wonderful recipe!

  181. Toofa Author says:

    I fall in love with this cheesecake before I even tried it. I did the recipe with ricotta cheese and cream cheese (total of 1 kg)and it was a big fail. The mixtures mixed up and I ended up with crackes everywhere.
    I went out and got all the ingredients and did the recipe exactly and the two mixtures mixed up again.

    It’s in the oven right now hoping to have something to setve tomorrow :'(

    Hello from New York! I had a lot of fun making this for a friend’s birthday party. Unfortunately, when I pulled my cheesecake out of the oven, it was sunken in the center and cracked, too. I followed the recipe exactly; the cream cheese was at room temperature and the whipping cream was cold. It seems like there is a lot of mixing involved, and from what I have read, this can cause the cake to sink in. I am fairly new to making cheesecakes and would welcome your feedback as to what the problem might be. Still, I am excited to taste my cheesecake, as from everything everyone is saying in the reviews, it is simply divine!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      It's hard for me to give you an advice on this.. I am not quite sure why it sunk.. over mixing or over baking might get cracks too.. It is also very important to not rush a cheesecake to get chilled, best results are get when the cheesecake is let to cool completely at room temperature and then refrigerated for several hours or better overnight.

    2. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hope you have enjoyed it.. I am sure it was really tasty though

  183. kaja Author says:

    I made this cake for 3 times now and it tasted amazing. But every I make it the same problem appears. When I poor the Nutella layer on the white layer it sunk immediately, even though I really whipped the cream. After the baking and cooling, the strangest thing happens. The white and the brown layer are switched. First there is Oreo layer, than brown layer which is followed by white layer. The cheesecake still tastes delicious, but it gets on my nerves not knowing why the layers switch. Do you have any idea? Thank you for your help and the recipe really is one of the best I know.

  184. Arthur Author says:

    Im not posting this to anything but I do have a question if you wouldnt mind answering it? Would it be possible to use coconut oil instead of butter or at least in the recipe? If so how much would you need?

  185. Meg Harancher Author says:

    Hi! Was thinking of making this in a cupcake pan with liners so they can be individual servings. Would I have to change anything? Thanks!

  186. Kathy Author says:

    It looks so yummy ! I really want to make it but 10 inch is
    too big for our family. How to adjust the ingredients if I
    want to make a 6 inch cake instead of 10 inch?

  187. ciktehaafatin Author says:

    Hi! i like your cheesecake much. I’m in love with. May I know, what name of heavy cream you use and cream cheese? and what is “tbsp” and “tsp” ? I’m not really understand about that.

  188. Jennifer Author says:

    Thank you for the recipe. I made one this evening. It’s cooling now then into frig till tomorrow. Can’t wait to serve it after dinner. I watched video and reed most of comments before I started. That helped a lot. Mine came out looking like yours. I hope it tastes as good as it looks. Thanks again.

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Hope you enjoyed it  Jennifer, you did an awesome job if it turned in layers:)

  189. Erin K. Author says:

    Oh my! What a cheesecake! I made this last week for Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit! This was my first cheesecake so I was a bit nervous but I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. I was worried when I took it out of the oven because the middle was still jiggling, but luckily Google told me that’s perfect. I added crushed Oreos around the edge instead of hazelnuts simply because half my family would see nuts and automatically never touch it, but it looked great.
    Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I’m sure it will become a regular for me.

    Is there a recipe for a smaller size? like a 8″ spring form? or can you freeze after its been cooked? We are a small family and can’t possibly eat that size in a few days.

  205. Nabila Author says:

    Hello,

    I was just wondering can i use half and half cream for the nutella topping at the very end?

  207. hasnie Author says:

    This is great

  208. Tonya Author says:

    I made this but it’s super wobbly even after the hour in the oven after turning it off. I looked at the comments so I guess I’m just gonna try letting it get room temperature then chilling overnight hopefully it works. Will be back to let u know but this is 5 years later so you probably don’t care lol

  209. puzzle jigsaw Author says:

    I have 3 kids, I also make cakes for them to eat. But you made it look delicious, thanks a lot!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I have 3 daughters too 🙂 Glad you like my recipes, hope you and your kids enjoy them. 

  210. Vinothiraa Naidu Author says:

    May I know what type of sugar did u use….is it caster sugar?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      Caster sugar or granulated sugar, both are just as good

  211. I have baked this recipe a couple times. It does always come out delicious but it needs consistently much more time actively cooking than 45-55 minutes. I’ve even tried it on a couple different ovens. I should mark how long I actually bake it next time so I can adjust accordingly but based on some other comments, that’s a consistent concern. I also find the Nutella flavor intensifies after the cheesecake chills a couple days so I now make it 2 days in advance. Thanks for the recipe!

  212. 5 stars
    This is one of my favorite cheesecake recipes!
    I was wondering if it’s possible to make this into a mini cheesecake ? Say 4” ? I wanted to make 2 minis for 2 friends but I think cutting the recipe may be to much?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      you can always adjust the recipe using the rule of three in math.. according to your pan size.
