To make these delightful cheesecake cups, you'll need the following ingredients: - 1 cup Oreo cookie crumbs - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted - 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature - 1/2 cup Nutella chocolate hazelnut spread - 1/2 cup powdered sugar - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract - 1 cup heavy whipping cream - Additional Oreo cookies, crumbled, for topping - Shaved chocolate (optional) for an elegant garnish For the best results, use measuring cups and spoons. Always level off dry ingredients with a straight edge. This way, you avoid adding too much or too little. When measuring sticky items like Nutella, spray the cup with cooking spray first. This helps it slide out easily. For cream cheese, make sure it is soft. This leads to a smooth texture. You can easily swap some ingredients to fit different diets: - Use gluten-free cookies instead of Oreos for a gluten-free option. - Choose dairy-free cream cheese and whipped cream for a vegan treat. - If you're watching sugar, select a sugar-free Nutella spread. These swaps help everyone enjoy this dessert without worry. To start, grab a medium bowl. Combine 1 cup of Oreo cookie crumbs with 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix them well. You want the crumbs to look like wet sand. Once mixed, divide the crumb mixture into about 6 cups or jars. Press the mixture firmly at the bottom of each cup. This creates a solid base for the cheesecake. Next, take a clean bowl. Beat 8 oz of softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup of Nutella, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer on medium speed. Mix until smooth with no lumps. In another bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture in two additions. This keeps it light and fluffy. Now it's time to fill the cups. Use a spoon or piping bag to add the Nutella cheesecake mixture. Leave a little space at the top. Sprinkle the extra crumbled Oreo cookies over the cheesecake layer. This adds a nice crunch. Cover the cups with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best taste. If you like, add shaved chocolate on top just before serving. Enjoy this delightful treat! To get a smooth cheesecake, start with soft cream cheese. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps it blend well. Mix the cream cheese with Nutella, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat them together until there are no lumps. Use a hand mixer for the best results. If you notice lumps, keep mixing until the texture is even. Whipping cream is key to a light texture. Begin with cold heavy cream for the best results. Use a clean bowl and beaters to avoid any residue. Start mixing on low speed to avoid splatter. Gradually increase to high speed until stiff peaks form. This usually takes about 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to over-whip, as it can turn grainy. Presentation makes a big difference! Use clear cups to show off the layers of your cheesecake. This adds fun to your dessert. Sprinkle crumbled Oreos on top for a nice crunch. For an extra touch, add shaved chocolate before serving. A fresh mint sprig can also brighten the look. Serve the cups on a decorative platter for a stunning display. {{image_4}} You can change up the flavor of your cheesecake cups. Mix in peanut butter for a nutty twist. Just add 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter to the Nutella mix. For a tropical vibe, try coconut. Swap out some cream cheese with coconut cream. This adds rich flavor and creamy texture. Toppings can take your dessert to the next level. Use crushed nuts for crunch. Chopped hazelnuts or almonds work well. You can also add fresh berries for a burst of color and flavor. Strawberries or raspberries add a nice tartness. A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce can make it extra sweet and rich. These cheesecake cups fit many events. For a birthday party, add colorful sprinkles on top. If you're hosting a dinner, use clear cups for a fancy touch. For casual get-togethers, serve them in fun, colorful jars.

Ingredients
  

1 cup Oreo cookie crumbs

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/2 cup Nutella chocolate hazelnut spread

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

Additional Oreo cookies, crumbled, for topping

Shaved chocolate (optional) for an elegant garnish

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Oreo cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the crumbs are well-coated and resemble wet sand.

    Evenly divide the crumb mixture into serving cups or jars (about 6). Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to press the mixture firmly at the bottom of each cup to create a solid crust.

      In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened cream cheese, Nutella, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract on medium speed until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps remain.

        In another clean bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, which should take about 3-5 minutes.

          Carefully fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture in two additions. Use a spatula to gently combine them, being cautious not to deflate the whipped cream for a light and airy texture.

            Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill the cups with the creamy Nutella cheesecake mixture, leaving a little space at the top for the crumbled Oreos.

              Generously sprinkle the extra crumbled Oreo cookies over the cheesecake layer for added texture and crunch.

                Cover the cheesecake cups with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best flavor and firmness.

                  Just before serving, if desired, add a sprinkle of shaved chocolate on top for a touch of elegance and a richer chocolate flavor.

                      - Presentation Tips: Display the cheesecake cups on a decorative serving platter for an appealing presentation. Adding a fresh sprig of mint on top will enhance the aesthetic and provide a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors. Opt for clear cups to beautifully showcase the artistic layers of your dessert.
