If you donβt have any Nutella in your cupboard, quick, run to the store now! These Mini Strawberry Nutella Mousse Pies are calling! A soft and velvety Nutella chocolate mousse sitting on top of a crumbly Oreo crust, served with juicy fresh strawberries.
While Iβve been pulling out the track pants and wearing socks 24/7, those in the Northern Hemisphere are enjoying all the joys of summer (so I hear). But it doesnβt matter to me whether its summer, winter or spring β no bake desserts are always a good idea.
Whenever Iβm entertaining, I’m always partial to no bake desserts because 99 out of 100 times, they can made ahead of time. Half the time, they taste even BETTER the next day. And easy no bake desserts make for easy entertaining.
Whip these gorgeous pies out at your next do and watch them disappear. Your guests will never know they were a cinch to make! Honestly, these pies are too easy. Once you crush those Oreos and make the cookie crust, itβs just a matter of whipping up the mousse (which is only four ingredients) and then its time to let it set.
Before serving, add a few strawberries and you are good to go! Fresh strawberries and chocolate are just a match made in heaven, am I right? It’s like having your own little pot of Nutella fondue right there, ready for dipping!
Itβs a good thing there is no more Nutella mousse in my house because Iβm starting to develop some serious cravings right now. And I don’t think it’s normal to eat chocolate mousse at 6am in the morning!
Can you believe itβs the last day of June? The financial year is just about over, and you know what that means right? Christmas is coming! Just kidding. But really, we are halfway through 2016 already! #madness
Let’s Bake
Mini Strawberry Nutella Mousse Pies
A soft and velvety Nutella chocolate mousse sitting inside a crumbly Oreo crust, topped with fresh strawberries.
Ingredients
- 200 grams (20 cookies) Oreos
- 60 grams (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
- 150 grams (3/4 cup) cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 225 grams (3/4 cup) Nutella
- 360 ml (1 and 1/2 cups) thickened or heavy cream
- 6 fresh strawberries
- Grated chocolate to decorate
Instructions
- Crush your Oreos, cream and all, using a food processor. Melt your butter in the microwave and then pour over the Oreos and whiz again. Stir until they are fully coated and become like wet sand. Press into the bottom and sides of your tart tins. Pop them into the fridge.
- Meanwhile, add the cream cheese to a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla and Nutella and beat until smooth. In a seperate bowl, whisk the cream until soft peaks form. Gently mix through the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture.
- Pour the Nutella mixture over the Oreo base. Pop in the fridge for at least 3 hours before serving. Add a strawberry and sprinkle over a few chocolate shavings. Β Enjoy!

Jessica Holmes says
Hi Lisa, I know the photo is a little misleading, but these mini pies are actually no bake. Iβve just use mini quiche/tart pans to serve them.

We are definitely in the dead of summer here, so I can use all the no bake treats I can get! These little pies are adorable!
Jessica Holmes says
Thanks Ashley! π
Megan says
Wow!! These look like a great treat! I don’t have any Nutella on hand, (gasp!) so I’ll have to run to the store ASAP to make these sweet pies π
Jessica Holmes says
Haha thanks Megan! I think Nutella is always a good idea π
Jessica says
Sounds awesome! Do these come out of the tins easy enough or should they be served in the tin?
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Jess, it sort of depends on your tins! If you have loose bottom ones, they will be easy to remove but if not, I’d serve them in the tin. I left them in my tins when I served them and they still looked gorgeous! π
