These baked Oreo Nutella Cheesecake Bars are simple to make and combine two favorite treats for a decadent dessert that is sure to impress!
Not sure about you, but I love a good rich, creamy homemade cheesecake. From light and fluffy no-bake cheesecakes like my Caramel Cheesecakes in a Jar to dense and decadent baked cheesecakes like Mini New York Cheesecakes!
I enjoy the simplicity of making cheesecake in bar form. Like my Eggnog Cheesecake Bars from Christmas or Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars with Gingersnap Crust, these Nutella Oreo Cheesecake Bars are very simple and quick to mix together and throw in the oven. The bars need about 3 hours of chilling time which makes this a great make-ahead recipe!

⭐️ Why You Need to Make This Recipe
- Flavor - Tasty Oreo cookies and Nutella come together in these special cheesecake bars.
- Texture - The creamy cheesecake has pieces of chopped Oreo cookies throughout and is baked on top of an Oreo crumbs crust.
- Serving - These bars are great for when you need a handheld dessert at events or parties.
🧈 Ingredients
Here are the ingredients needed to make these baked Nutella Oreo cheesecake bars.
Ingredient Notes
- Oreo Cookies - You will need some Oreo cookies crushed up without the filling for the crust and more chopped Oreos to fold into the cheesecake batter.
- Cream Cheese - I have found the quality of Philadelphia brand cream cheese is unmatched for all recipes made with cream cheese (like my in Chocolate Orange Cheesecake!). Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to help it incorporate without lumps!
- Nutella - While I have tested this recipe with off-brand chocolate hazelnut spread, I think it would be a fine substitute for the Nutella brand.

📃 Instructions
Step 1: Stir together the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter until fully combined.
Step 2: Press firmly into the bottom of a 9X9-inch baking that has been lined with parchment paper.
Step 3: Cream together the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, and Nutella and continue mixing until incorporated. Add the heavy cream and mix just until incorporated.
Step 4: Fold the chopped Oreo cookies into the cheesecake batter.
Step 5: Pour into a baking pan lined with parchment paper and top with additional chopped Oreo cookies.
Step 6: Bake in a preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until just just slightly still jiggly in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before slicing to serve.
