Nutella Cheesecake

Adapted from this delicious recipe. I changed it a bit, because I didn't want to fuss with individual servings. This cheesecake is made in a glass pie dish and has about 12 servings. Most importantly, it comes together FAST and doesn't use the oven.

Ingredients for crust:

20 Oreo cookies, crushed into crumbs using a food processor

5 tbs melted, unsalted butter

Directions for crust:

Mix the Oreo crumbs and melted butter in the pie dish until the crumbs seem uniformly damp. Then, press down to form a crust.

Ingredients for filling:

1 brick softened cream cheese (I used store-brand, because Philadelphia always seems to salty to me for desserts.)

2/3 cup Nutella

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tub frozen whipped topping, thawed

Directions for filling:

Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat together softened cream cheese, Nutella, and vanilla until smooth and well-combined. Then, using a spatula, fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is uniform. Spoon the filling into the crust and smooth out the top.

Refrigerate for a couple of ours and serve.
