Ingredients
Crust
- 35 Oreo cookies
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter plus 2 Tablespoons, melted (or 1 stick + 2 TBSP)
Filling
- 8 ounces Nutella or Hazelnut Spread (about 1 cup)
- 10 ounces bittersweet chocolate chips (about 1 3/4 cups)
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream, warm
Garnish
- Assorted berries (strawberry, blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry)
- Fresh mint leaves
- Dried rose petals
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Process Oreo cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Transfer crumbs to a bowl and mix well with the melted butter. Press the mixture evenly into a 14-inch rectangular tart pan with a removable bottom, using your hands or the back of a spoon. Ensure the edges are a bit thicker to prevent crumbling when unmolded. Freeze the crust for at least 15 minutes to set.
- Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the Nutella and bittersweet chocolate chips. Pour the warm heavy whipping cream over the chocolate mixture, then whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
- Assemble and chill: Pour the chocolate-hazelnut filling onto the frozen cookie crust, spreading it evenly. Place the tart in the freezer for 15 minutes, or until the filling is set. Alternatively, chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours if you prefer a less firm texture.
- Garnish and serve: Before serving, decorate the tart with assorted fresh berries, mint leaves, and dried rose petals for an elegant finishing touch. Enjoy your no-bake Nutella tart!
Notes
- To ensure the crust holds together well, make the edges thicker during pressing.
- If you don’t have a food processor, place the Oreo cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin until finely ground.
- The tart can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use a dairy-free butter alternative.
- Warm the heavy cream gently to prevent seizing of the chocolate when combined.
