Decadent Chocolate Caramel Cheesecake Delight
Recipe
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
3 cups cream cheese, softened
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup caramel sauce
1 cup mini chocolate chips
Whipped cream, for garnish
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and granulated sugar. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the heavy cream, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and salt. Beat until combined and smooth.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Before serving, drizzle caramel sauce over the top and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Garnish with whipped cream.
