Description

A delightful dessert combining creamy cheesecake, rich caramel, and warm fudge, perfect for any special occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 32 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup caramel topping
  • 1/2 cup hot fudge topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup of sugar until combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom and about 2/3 of the way up the sides of a springform pan. Bake for 8 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes until smooth and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the baked crust. Drizzle half of the caramel and hot fudge toppings over the batter and gently swirl into the batter. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top, then drizzle the remaining caramel and fudge and swirl again.
  4. Bake the cheesecake for 55-70 minutes until the center jiggles uniformly when shaken. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 15 minutes to help prevent cracking.
  5. Allow the cheesecake to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  6. Before slicing, drizzle extra caramel and fudge over the top and enjoy your Caramel Fudge Cheesecake!

Notes

Make sure your cream cheese is softened for a smooth batter. Don’t overbake; a slight jiggle in the center is okay. Customize toppings based on preferences.
