Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 24 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream

- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 1 tsp sea salt

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth and creamy.

- Once cooled, drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the cheesecake. Sprinkle with sea salt.
- Finish with a dollop of whipped cream and extra mini chocolate chips on top. Slice and enjoy!
