Caramel Pecan Cheesecake
Oh sin. Sin to my taste buds. Sin to my New Year’s resolutions. Sin, sin, sin. But boy does it feel good going down. This recipe is pure sin. I have only made it once because I couldn’t stop helping myself to just a ‘sliver‘. Well 12 slivers equals about 4 pieces! Shame on me for wanting to be face down in this cheesecake, eating my way to freedom! It really is that good.
Ingredients:
1 8-oz. packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 eggs
20 caramel candies (get the big bag so you have something to snack on while you are creating)
2 Tbsp. milk
1/2 c. pecans, chopped
1 graham cracker pie crust
liquid chocolate sauce
Preheat oven to 350. Mix together cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and eggs. Set aside. Melt caramels with milk over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth. Stir in pecans. Spread caramel mixture over the pie crust. Spread cream cheese mixture over the caramel mixture. Bake for 40 minutes or until center is almost set. Allow to cool then refrigerate for 3 hours. Drizzle top with chocolate sauce.
I told you. It’s sinful, right?
