Title: Creamy Nutella Cheesecake
Ingredients:
– 2 cups crushed graham crackers
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 24 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 3 large eggs
– 1 cup Nutella
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
2. In a bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust. Place in the freezer to set while you prepare the filling.
3. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the sugar and continue to beat until well incorporated.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
5. Gently fold in the Nutella, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
6. Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust in the pan.
7. Place the springform pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then bake in the preheated oven for about 60-70 minutes, or until the center is almost set but slightly jiggly.
8. Turn off the oven, crack the door open slightly, and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour.
9. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen it from the pan. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set completely.
10. Serve chilled and garnish with a drizzle of melted Nutella, whipped cream, or fresh berries for an extra touch of indulgence.
