Twix Cheesecake 🍫🍰
Ingredients:
2 cups (200g) crushed chocolate graham crackers or digestive biscuits 🍪
1⁄2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted 🧈
24 oz (680g) cream cheese, softened 🧀
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar 🍬
3 large eggs 🥚
1 tsp vanilla extract 🍦
1⁄2 cup (120ml) heavy cream 🥛
1⁄2 cup (120g) caramel sauce 🍯
4-5 Twix bars, chopped 🍫
1 cup (120g) caramel sauce (for topping) 🍯
1 cup (175g) milk chocolate chips, melted 🍫
Additional Twix bars, chopped (for garnish) 🍫
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Let’s get that heat going!
2. In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers and melted butter until combined. We’re making the base of this delicious dessert!
3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan. Bake it for 10 minutes and let it cool. This crust is going to be irresistible!
4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. It’s all about that luscious texture!
5. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Let’s make this filling rich and creamy!
6. Mix in the vanilla extract and heavy cream until fully incorporated. Yum, the flavor is coming together!
7. Gently fold in the caramel sauce and chopped Twix bars. Now we’re adding that candy bar goodness!
8. Pour the filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top. It’s looking so good already!
9. Place the springform pan in a larger baking pan and fill that larger pan with hot water halfway up the sides. This water bath will create the perfect baking environment!
10. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle. Patience is key here!
11. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour. We want it to be perfectly set!
12. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely. No rushing this deliciousness!
13. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. The longer, the better—it gets even more amazing!
14. Spread a layer of caramel sauce over the top of the chilled cheesecake. This is where the magic happens!
15. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel layer. Time to add some extra decadence!
16. Garnish with additional chopped Twix bars. Because you can never have too much Twix!
17. Slice and serve your Twix Cheesecake chilled. Get ready to indulge in this creamy, crunchy delight!
Enjoy every bite of this heavenly Twix Cheesecake!
