A luscious and easy No-Bake Nutella Banana Cheesecake that combines creamy Nutella, ripe bananas, and a buttery graham cracker crust. Perfectly set without baking, this indulgent dessert is smooth, velvety, and ideal for any occasion from casual dinners to celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup Nutella
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Melt the unsalted butter and thoroughly mix it with the graham cracker crumbs until well coated. Press this mixture firmly into the base of your cheesecake pan to form a solid, even crust that will hold the filling perfectly.
  2. Whip the Cream Cheese Mixture: Using a mixer, blend the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture is silky smooth, ensuring a rich, light, and fluffy cheesecake base.
  3. Incorporate Nutella and Banana: Gently fold the Nutella and mashed ripe bananas into the cream cheese mixture, mixing until evenly combined to create a harmonious blend of chocolate and fruit flavors.
  4. Whip the Heavy Cream: Whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the Nutella-banana mixture to add airiness and softness for the ideal no-bake cheesecake texture.
  5. Chill and Set: Pour the prepared filling over the crust, smooth the top with a spatula, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let the cheesecake set firmly and develop full flavor.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for sweeter, more flavorful cheesecake.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps and smooth mixing.
  • Chill mixing bowl and beaters to whip cream fluffier.
  • Press the crust firmly to prevent crumbling when sliced.
  • Cover with plastic wrap while chilling to keep fresh and prevent odor absorption.
