Recipes for New Moms: No-Bake Nutella Cheesecake

Happy 4th of July, everyone! I’m going with a simple no-bake Nutella Cheesecake for today’s holiday dessert. I know, it’s not red, white and blue. I didn’t have time to make a 4th of July dessert, because my days as of late have been crushed with the manuscript.
But big news—I’m done! I finally submitted it to my editor. I can breathe again – for a little a bit at least.

So if you get overwhelmingly, busy and you aren’t able to make layered cakes like this, this, this or this, it’s always a good thing to have a few easy to-make, no-bake cakes like this.

And in keeping with today’s holiday vibe, I’m keeping this short so I can be outside with the family. Have a great holiday everyone! See you Wednesday.
