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:
- 3 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups chopped Caramilk chocolate bars
Directions:
- Prepare the Crust: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with aluminum foil to prevent leaks. In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- Prepare the Cheesecake Batter: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth and well combined.
- Incorporate Caramilk Chocolate: Gently fold in the chopped Caramilk chocolate bars until evenly distributed throughout the cheesecake batter, ensuring every bite is filled with chocolatey goodness.
- Bake the Cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Place the pan in a large baking dish and fill the baking dish with enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the springform pan, creating a water bath. This helps prevent cracks in the cheesecake.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Cool and Chill: Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door closed for 1 hour to allow it to cool gradually. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen. Allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
