I simply don’t visit San Antonio, the birthplace of the puffy taco, as frequently as I’d like to. I succeeded admirably in trying to duplicate it at home. Make sure the meat and fixings are prepared in advance so all you have to do is fry and stuff! When served as warm as possible, these function best.

Reviews
I have made this recipe over and over and over again. My friends can never seem to get enough, regardless of the richness 🙂 I don’t add sugar, I add an egg and bake it for about 12 minutes or so. Refrigeration does indeed make it better. Love this recipe!
This was so good! For this recipe, I added an egg and no sugar. For the crust I crushed graham crackers in a food processor and mixed it with melted butter. Then baked the crust separately at 350° for 7 minutes before adding the cheescake mixture. I then also baked the cheesecake mixture and chilled it overnight. It was delicious!!
I had made a “fake” black bean nutella to try to get my picky kid with autism to eat it, but the nutella was just weird (pasty with a bean after-taste). I didn’t want to waste it, so I discovered this recipe. SUCCESS! My son LOVES this cheesecake made with “black bean nutella.” I have made it twice in as many weeks.
I’ll make it again, but not to take out to. It should be served cold and not to set out at a church dinner (buffet) or the like. It’s pretty and easy and good.
Amazing recipe noone believed that i made it at home they all thought i bought it somewhere haha
So easy, so yummy
Turned out very good even better if you let it sit for 2-4 days before serving more flavour
I used a little less sugar than the recipe called for because nutella is so rich. It turned out pretty decent though didnt take long to set in the fridge and its nice and sturdy. I used hobnobs as the base instead of a pre made graham cracker crust and its delicious
Delicious! Made it for me and my girlfriend and we both loved it. Easy and quick.
Amazing! I made it with the modifications for a christmas dinner and everyone loved it!
Like insomniac chef, I did make a few changes, and kept the no bake aspect of the recipe. Everything still pretty much the same, but half the sugar, and roughly 3/4 of the nutella, because I want the nutella flavor and the color, but I found that putting the whole amount overpowered the flavor of the cream cheese. I also added amount a package of unflavored gelatin that was dissolved in 1 cup of hot water in to the mixture to make sure that it doesn’t get gooey and give it a guarantee that you will always get a velvety texture.
I’ve made this cake with half the amount of sugar, with no sugar, and the amount of sugar as told by the recipe and it is still amazing. No sugar makes it richer but half the amount makes it perfect.
oh my God! this recipe is incredible! The only issue is that it’s super rich. Being diabetic, I have to be careful with it. But its so good and I will definitely be making it again.
im a little ashamed at how easy this was lol, very tasty, ridiculously easy recipe. only thing I changed was I omitted the vanilla essence, because id run out. and here in northern Ireland I have no idea what a graham cracker is? so I used digestives…..very yummy!
I did change this quite a bit because I made it like a baked cheesecake by beating in 3 eggs and baking it at 250 for about an hour in a spring-form pan. I did put a graham crust in the bottom of the pan. It was awesome. Served it with berries and whipped cream.
I took others advise and omitted sugar and added one egg and baked at 350 for 30 minutes. Also instead of graham cracker crust (I don’t like) I used 1 1/4 cups crushed pretzel, 1/4 cup diced almonds and 4 tablespoons melted butter for crust. I made individual cheesecakes with cupcake liners and muffin tins. This recipe is so rich so I liked the smaller serving. They were the hit of the holiday party… Yummy!
I did not cre for this recipe.
I omitted the sugar and did a homemade Oreo crust. We loved this. It’s not very Nutella-y though, the hazelnut flavor is completely drowned by the cheesecake flavor. It’s still great though. I made this with neufchatel and it held up quite firmly, don’t know what the reviewer who referred to it as “gooey mess” did wrong. I even used the floppy kind of cream cheese and mine held up fine. Honestly, there’s no reason for this to have only 4 stars. If it doesn’t taste good to you, then you don’t like the ingredients. It’s simple and tasty, thank you.
I’ve made this twice. It is very rich and a small piece goes a long way. It got rave reviews from my kids. I did not use the sugar since the Nutella is sweet enough without it.
I love this recipe!!! It’s super easy. I have done both the bake and no bake versions; and I have to say I prefer the bake version. I’ve made this about 6 times, cut down the sugar it’s not necessary. Add an egg! Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 until the center is not too jiggly anymore and viola! I also use a chocolate homemade wafer crust or if I’m lazy/tired I buy the Keebler Ready chocolate crust…yum. After baking let it cool down completely before placing in the fridge (preferably overnight) for at least 4-6 hours. Then enjoy!!!!
I used am oreo cookie crust added just a little more vanilla omg it is fantastic.i love nuetella and cheesecake so bravo for this recipe.thanks this is my first time posting.now of u could tweek it for a diabetic that would be great .i put it into 2 pie shells
