Two of my favorite flavors combined into one really cute dessert! Mini Nutella Swirl Cheesecake is filled with creamy cheesecake and Nutella Hazelnut Spread on top of a graham cracker crust. You might find yourself reaching for more than just one!
Nutella Swirl Cheesecake
I never tasted Nutella Hazelnut Spread until my daughter, Olivia, went away to college. One of her roommates introduced her to this delicious creamy hazelnut spread and then she introduced it to me! I know this recipe for Nutella Swirl Cheesecake is going to be something my daughter is going to love as I hope you will too.
This is an easy recipe. You all know I don’t like complicated recipes or even recipes with a ton of ingredients. I’ve learned over the years to just keep things simple in the kitchen.
I think these would be a big hit with the holidays coming or for any big family gathering. They would look great on any dessert buffet table.

- Muffin Pan
- Tart Tamper – this is such a great tool! Once you spoon the graham cracker crumb mixture into the bottom of the muffin pan, press them down using this tart tamper tool. This is the same tool I use to help get the pie dough in the pan for my Mini Quiche.
How to Make Mini Nutella Swirl Cheesecake
Ingredients:
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 4 tbsp butter, melted
- 16 oz. cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 large egg
- ½ cup Nutella Hazelnut Spread
In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter.
Mix thoroughly and then put a layer of crumbs in each paper liner in your muffin pan. Use the tart tamper to press the crumbs in place evenly.
Using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and egg until smooth. Divide evenly and spread into each paper liner.
How to Swirl the Nutella
Scoop your Nutella into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 10 seconds. Drop a small amount on the center of each cheesecake and swirl with a toothpick.
How Long to Bake the Nutella Swirl Cheesecake
Bake the Nutella Swirl Cheesecake for about 25 minutes and allow to cool. Refrigerate for a minimum of two hours, peel off the paper liners and enjoy!
