Ingredients

Units Scale

Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Cheesecake Filling:

  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin (optional)

Additional:

  • 1 cup dulce de leche or thick caramel sauce, divided
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (for ganache)
  • Flaky sea salt (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar. Press into a 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture.
  3. Assemble the Cheesecake: Spread half of the filling over the crust, layer with dulce de leche, then add remaining filling. Chill for at least 6 hours.
  4. Prepare the Ganache: Heat heavy cream and pour over chocolate chips. Spread ganache over chilled cheesecake.
  5. Finishing Touches: Drizzle with dulce de leche, sprinkle with sea salt, and chill before serving.

Notes

  • To simplify, use store-bought caramel sauce, ensuring it’s thick. For added crunch, consider adding toasted pecans between layers or as a topping.
