Indulge in the Sweet Delight of Caramel Cheesecake!
Ingredients:
• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup caramel sauce
• 24 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 large eggs
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• Pinch of salt
Directions:
. Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (163°C) and greasing a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan.
. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
. Pour half of the caramel sauce over the crust and spread it evenly.
. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy.
. Gradually add the sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, flour, sour cream, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
. Pour this cheesecake batter over the caramel layer in the pan.
. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle.
. Let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door ajar for about an hour.
. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set.
. Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over the top of the cheesecake just before serving.
. Slice, serve, and savor every decadent bite!
