Ingredients
Scale
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
For the filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup Nutella
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
For the topping:
- 2 ripe bananas (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Extra Nutella (warmed, for drizzling)
- Chocolate shavings or chopped hazelnuts (optional)
Instructions
- For the crust: In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan or pie dish. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
- For the filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar, Nutella, and vanilla extract, and beat until fully combined and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture until smooth and fluffy. Spread the filling evenly over the crust and smooth the top.
- For the topping: In a small bowl, toss banana slices with lemon juice to prevent browning. Arrange them on top of the cheesecake. Drizzle with warm Nutella and sprinkle with chocolate shavings or chopped hazelnuts if desired. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Notes
- For a firmer texture, chill the cheesecake overnight.
- You can swap the graham crust with crushed chocolate cookies for a richer base.
- Add banana slices just before serving to keep them fresh.
