Reviews
It looks & sounds great, but 600 calories a slice & 71g of sugar! I'll probably make it, but it will have to be for a holiday when there's plenty of family around to help eat it. I just made an Oreo cookie cheesecake for Thanksgiving or I'd make it for this holiday. I don't have to bake my Oreo cheesecake, which is a plus during the holidays.
This recipe looks wonderful. (I'm giving it 5 stars based on its looks, and because I really don't like it when people complain about recipes they haven't made, and then they give them low ratings!) I haven't made it, though, and I probably won't. A jar of Nutella costs $6.42 (at Walmart), and this recipe needs two jars, plus Oreos, cream cheese, cream, hazelnuts, and the other ingredients . I can find cheaper ways to make a chocolate cheesecake!
