This Snickers cheesecake is decadently rich, but oh so addictive. Combines two of my loves, candy and cheesecake.
Ingredients
- 20 chocolate wafer cookies, finely ground
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ½ cup caramel chips, divided
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts, divided
- 4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ¾ cup milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
- 16 mini chocolate-coated caramel-peanut nougat candy bars (such as Snickers®), divided
- 1 (7 ounce) can whipped cream (Optional)
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix ground cookies, butter, and 1 tablespoon sugar together in a bowl until combined. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Top crust with 1/4 cup caramel chips and 2 tablespoons chopped peanuts.
Step 3
Mix cream cheese and 1 1/2 cups sugar together until smooth. Blend in milk. Mix in eggs 1 at a time; stir until just incorporated. Mix in sour cream, vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons flour, using a wooden spoon, until batter is smooth.
Step 4
Chop 6 mini candy bars into small pieces; toss with 1 tablespoon flour in a bowl (to prevent sinking to bottom of cake). Stir into batter; pour into crust-lined pan.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Keep door closed. Turn off heat; let cake cool in the oven for at least 3 hours. Remove from oven; chill 8 hours to overnight.
Step 6
Release cake from pan; transfer to a serving plate. Decorate top edge of cake with whipped cream. Put remaining 1/4 cup caramel chips and 2 tablespoons chocolate chips in separate microwave-safe bowls; heat in the microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Drizzle melted caramel over cake; repeat with melted chocolate. Chop remaining candy bars and arrange on top of whipped cream. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons peanuts on cake.
