Nutella No Bake Cheesecake

Pretty much anything with the word cheesecake attracts my attention. This super simple recipe satisfied my cheesecake desire!! The original recipe I found on Pinterest called for small individual serving bowls but I went ahead and modified it to make it all in one dish. I used all light or low fat/calorie ingredients to justify eating more!!!

Ingredients:

For the crust:
14 Oreos (crushed into crumbs) I put my Oreos in my ninja chopper to crush them perfectly
3 tbsp in salted butter, melted

For the filling:
1 8oz package cream cheese, softened
2/3 cup Nutella
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 8oz tub of cool whip. (Whipped topping)

Optional for garnish
    Chopped hazelnuts, shaved chocolate or whipped topping

Directions:

1. Stir Oreo crumbs and melted butter together in a bowl. Then evenly press it into the bottom of your pan forming the crust.
2. In a large bowl beat the cream cheese and Nutella with an electric mixer until smooth. Then add the vanilla extract and mix to combine. Fold in whipped topping with a spatula until well blended.
3. Spoon mixture evenly into dish, cover and refrigerate for at least two hours before serving.
4. Before serving add additional garnish if desired.
