Irresistible Nutella Marshmallow Pie Recipe with Graham Cracker Crust

Posted on

This is not just another no-bake pie. This is the pie people request by name. The one that disappears first at holidays. The one where someone quietly asks, “Did you bring that Nutella pie again?” Yes. Yes, I did. And no, there won’t be leftovers.

This dreamy Nutella Marshmallow Pie is built on a fluffy, mousse-like Nutella filling nestled into a buttery graham cracker crust. No oven. No stress. No complicated steps. Just pure dessert joy. If you’ve ever wanted a dessert that looks impressive, tastes indulgent, and secretly takes very little effort… welcome home.

Let’s break down why this pie works, why marshmallow fluff is the unsung hero, and why this recipe deserves a permanent spot in your dessert rotation.


Why This No-Bake Pie Deserves the Hype

You know those desserts that feel heavy after two bites? This is not that pie.

This pie is light, airy, and shockingly creamy. It’s rich without being overwhelming. Sweet without being cloying. The texture sits somewhere between cheesecake and mousse—but fluffier than both.

And the best part? You don’t turn on the oven. Ever.

That’s why it’s one of my favorite Easy No-bake Thanksgiving Desserts and a lifesaver during busy holidays when oven space is sacred real estate.


What Makes This Pie So Irresistible?

Let’s be honest. Nutella alone is dangerous. Add whipped cream and cream cheese? That’s a situation. But the real magic ingredient here is marshmallow fluff.

Marshmallow creme transforms the filling into something lighter, smoother, and downright dreamy. It adds volume without heaviness and gives the pie that melt-in-your-mouth texture that keeps forks coming back for “just one more bite.”

Key reasons this pie works so well:

  • No baking required (bless)
  • Make-ahead friendly
  • Ultra-creamy mousse texture
  • Nutella-forward flavor
  • Crowd-approved every single time

IMO, this is peak no-bake dessert energy.

Ingredient Breakdown (Simple but Strategic)

Every ingredient here earns its place. No fillers. No fluff… except the marshmallow kind 😉

The Graham Cracker Crust

This crust gives the pie structure and a buttery crunch that balances the soft filling perfectly.

  • Graham cracker crumbs
  • Light brown sugar
  • Melted butter

Pro tip: Make sure every crumb gets coated in butter. That’s what keeps the crust from crumbling when you slice it.

Want options? This crust also works beautifully for Mini No Bake Pies Graham Crackers if you want individual servings for parties or holidays.


The Nutella Marshmallow Filling

This is where things get exciting.

  • Heavy whipping cream (for lift)
  • Powdered sugar (just enough sweetness)
  • Full-fat cream cheese (structure + richness)
  • Nutella (the star)
  • Marshmallow creme (the secret weapon)

Together, these create a filling that’s silky, fluffy, and dangerously spoonable. This is the heart of the Nutella Marshmallow Pie Recipe, and it never fails.


The Topping (Optional but Highly Encouraged)

You could stop at the filling… but why?

  • Cocoa whipped cream
  • Chopped Ferrero Rocher candies
  • Extra Nutella drizzle

Is it necessary? No.
Does it make people gasp when you set it on the table? Absolutely.


What Is Marshmallow Cream (And Why It Matters)

If you’ve never baked with marshmallow creme before, this pie will convert you.

Marshmallow cream—also called marshmallow fluff—is the spreadable filling inside a marshmallow. It whips into fillings beautifully and adds airiness without thinning things out.

This ingredient is the reason this dessert falls under my favorite Things To Make With Fluff category. Once you use it here, you’ll start dreaming up other Treats With Marshmallow Fluff, guaranteed.


How to Make This No-Bake Nutella Marshmallow Pie (The Easy Way)

Let’s keep this simple and stress-free.

Step 1: Make the Crust

Mix graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter until everything looks like damp sand. Press it firmly into a springform pan. Chill while you make the filling.

Key tip: Use the bottom of a glass to press it evenly. Firm crust = clean slices.


Step 2: Whip the Cream

Beat cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and continue until stiff peaks appear.

Pro move: Chill your bowl and beaters first. It makes a difference.


Step 3: Build the Filling

Beat cream cheese with a small splash of cream until smooth and lump-free. Add Nutella and mix until glossy. Then beat in the marshmallow creme until fully combined.


Step 4: Fold and Fill

Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture. Take your time here—don’t deflate it.

Spread the filling into the crust and smooth the top.


Step 5: Chill

Refrigerate for 3–4 hours until firm. Overnight works too.

Top with whipped cream, Ferrero Rocher pieces, and extra Nutella just before serving.

Boom. You just made a No-bake Nutella Marshmallow Pie that tastes like it came from a bakery.


The Story Behind This Recipe

I first made this pie years ago, back in 2014, when I was experimenting with no-bake desserts. I wanted something that felt luxurious but didn’t require baking skills—or patience.

The first bite sold me instantly.

That was also the moment I fell hard for marshmallow creme in desserts. It opened the door to a whole lineup of no-bake pies, from chocolate versions to Biscoff twists. This pie was the gateway dessert.

And yes, once the Nutella jar was open, it was game over. A Nutella cheesecake followed shortly after. No regrets.


Pro Tips for the Best Pie Every Time

Chill everything. Cold ingredients whip better.
Beat cream cheese fully. Lumps are the enemy.
Fold gently. Keep that filling fluffy.
Chill long enough. Rushing ruins the set.
Add toppings last-minute. Fresh looks better.

These small steps make a big difference in texture and presentation.


Variations to Try (Because One Version Is Never Enough)

This pie is endlessly adaptable.

  • Swap graham crackers for Oreos
  • Make individual jars or mini pies
  • Add espresso powder for mocha vibes
  • Use Biscoff cookies for a caramel twist
  • Turn it festive with a Christmas Pie Graham Cracker Crust

This recipe is flexible, forgiving, and fun to play with.


Best Way to Serve This Pie

Serve it cold. Always.

Use a sharp knife and wipe between slices for clean cuts.

Pair with coffee, espresso, or milk.

Hosting? Pre-slice and plate individually. Looks fancy. Takes zero extra effort.

This pie fits right in with Easy No-bake Thanksgiving Desserts, holiday spreads, or casual family dinners where dessert steals the show.


Storage and Make-Ahead Tips

This pie loves the fridge.

  • Refrigerate covered for up to 2 days
  • Freeze (without toppings) for up to 1 month
  • Thaw overnight in the refrigerator

Important: This pie must stay chilled after assembling.

FAQs About Nutella Marshmallow Pie

Can I make this in a pie plate instead of a springform pan?
Yes. A 9-inch pie plate works. The filling will mound slightly—embrace it.

Can I use Cool Whip instead of homemade whipped cream?
Absolutely. One 8-ounce tub works perfectly.

Is this the same as cheesecake?
Texture-wise, it’s lighter. Flavor-wise, it’s richer. Best of both worlds.

Is this good for holidays?
It’s perfect. That’s why it’s one of my go-to No Bake Nutella Pie recipes.

Ingredients

Scale

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 2 cups finely crushed graham crackers
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Nutella Marshmallow Filling

  • 1¼ cups heavy whipping cream, plus 2 tablespoons (divided)
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme

Chocolate Whipped Topping

  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 heaping tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 68 Ferrero Rocher chocolates, chopped (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons Nutella


Instructions

Prepare the Crust

  • Lightly grease the sides of a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Add graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar to a bowl and mix until combined. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles damp sand.
  • Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan, packing it tightly. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Make the Filling

  • Place a mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for about 5–10 minutes to chill.
  • Pour 1¼ cups of heavy cream into the cold bowl and beat until it begins to thicken. Gradually add powdered sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the remaining 2 tablespoons of heavy cream until completely smooth.
  • Add the Nutella and mix until fully blended, then beat in the marshmallow creme until light and creamy.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the Nutella mixture in stages, being careful not to deflate the filling. Spread the finished filling evenly over the chilled crust.
  • Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours, or until fully set.

Prepare the Topping

  • Chill another mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 5–10 minutes.
  • Beat the heavy cream until it begins to thicken. Add cocoa powder and powdered sugar, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
  • Pipe or spread the chocolate whipped cream around the edges of the pie. Garnish with chopped Ferrero Rocher candies if using.
  • Warm the Nutella briefly in the microwave (about 30 seconds) until pourable, then drizzle over the top.
  • Keep the pie refrigerated until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Crust swaps: Oreo cookies or other chocolate sandwich cookies work great. Skip the brown sugar if using Oreos.
  • Shortcut option: Substitute the homemade whipped cream in the filling with one 8-ounce container of Cool Whip if desired.
  • Make-ahead friendly: Assemble the pie up to two days in advance. Add toppings the day you plan to serve.
  • Freezer option: Wrap tightly and freeze for up to one month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Storage: This pie must stay chilled. Store covered or tightly wrapped in the refrigerator.
