Ingredients:
For the Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
24 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup chopped Snickers bars
For the Toppings:
1/2 cup caramel sauce
1/2 cup chocolate ganache
1/4 cup chopped peanuts
Additional Snickers bars for garnish
Directions:
1. Prepare the Crust:
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated with butter.
Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer.
2. Make the Cheesecake Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract until just combined.
Gently fold in the chopped Snickers bars.
3. Bake the Cheesecake:
Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust.
Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool gradually.
4. Cool and Chill:
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to fully set.
5. Add Toppings:
Before serving, drizzle the cheesecake with caramel sauce and chocolate ganache.
Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and additional chopped Snickers bars for garnish.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Slice the cheesecake and serve for a decadent treat.
