Ingredients
For the Crust:
-
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
-
½ cup melted butter
For the Chocolate Layer:
-
1 cup chocolate chips
-
½ cup heavy cream
For the Cheesecake Filling:
-
2 cups cream cheese, softened
-
½ cup powdered sugar
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 cup whipped cream
For the Topping:
-
1 cup caramel sauce
-
Additional chocolate chips & heavy cream for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
Step 1 – Make the Crust
In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust layer. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
Step 2 – Prepare the Chocolate Layer
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and melted. Pour over the chilled crust and spread evenly. Return the pan to the fridge for 15–20 minutes until the chocolate firms up.
Step 3 – Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in whipped cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 4 – Assemble the Layers
Spoon the cheesecake filling over the set chocolate layer, spreading it evenly. Pour caramel sauce over the top and smooth gently with a spatula.
Step 5 – Final Chocolate Drizzle (Optional)
Melt additional chocolate chips with a splash of heavy cream for a smooth drizzle. Pour over the caramel layer, letting some drip down the sides for a beautiful finish.
Step 6 – Chill and Serve
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours, or until fully set. Slice with a warm knife (run under hot water and wiped dry) for clean cuts through the caramel and chocolate.
Cook’s Tip
Warm your knife before slicing to prevent caramel and chocolate from sticking and to keep those gorgeous layers neat.
