Can y’all tell I’m in a baking mood. I usually make stuff like this, having a bite and I’m done. My husband on the other hand, devours it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy the recipe. If you make this, share a photo in the comments below.

But WOW doesn’t this look delish. I might sprinkle some dark chocolate coffee sea salt dust on top. Just to kick it up a notch. Hmm..

I know I’m making some fancy brownies soon. I’m craving that. Maybe top my brownies off with crushed cookies. Crushed Oreos or Chip Ahoy. Maybe even instead crushed pretzels. That sounds great! Doesn’t it?

Thoughts?

Salted Caramel Chocolate Cheesecake Cake

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CAKE:

1 recipe chocolate layer cake (9inch layers)- homemade or cake mix is fine

  • 2 pkg (8oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla

FOR THE FROSTING:

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (homemade caramel sauce or jarred is fine)
  • 4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

FOR THE GANACHE:

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 oz dark chocolate
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 2 Tbsp caramel sauce
  • pinch of kosher salt

FOR THE CHEESECAKE:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Using a large roasting pan on the lower 2/3 of the oven, preheat the pan too!
Prepare springform pan by wrapping bottom of pan (outside) with double layer of foil.

Spray pan with nonstick baking spray and line bottom (inside) with a circle of parchment paper. Meanwhile, boil a kettle of water to use later.

Beat cream cheese with granulate sugar for 2-3 minutes until creamy. Add in salt and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat in sour cream, heavy cream and vanilla. Pour into prepared 9inch springform pan. Place pan in center of preheated roasting pan in the oven. Pour boiling water slowly into the roasting pan, until there is about an inch of water coming up the sides of the springform pan.

Bake cheesecake for 45 minutes. Turn oven off and let cheesecake sit in oven for an additional 30 minutes. Remove and cool completely on counter.
When cooled, transfer entire springform pan into the freezer for several hours or overnight. I put it in freezer for about 2 hours. **If using within 24 hours, feel free to just refrigerate cheesecake!
