All of the Snicker's Cheesecake recipes I've come across use the candy bar as ingredient.
I'll keep looking for one without candy bars!
Snicker's Cheesecake
1 box of Oreo Cookie Crumbs
2 sticks of butter
5 packages (8 oz ea) of cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
3 cups of heavy cream
Chocolate malt syrup
15 Snickers bars
Butterscotch caramel sauce
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Melt butter in skillet or microwave. Place cookie crumbs in a mixing
bowl and add melted butter. Mix well. Spray spring-form pan with butter-flavored non-stick spray.
Press crumb mixture into bottom of pan, and about 1 inch up the sides.
In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until
smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla, 2 cups of heavy cream, and 1/2
cup of chocolate sauce and mix about another minute. Fold in 11 Snickers, cut into bite-size pieces.
Turn mixture into pan, level out with rubber spatula, and place on middle rack of preheated oven.
Place an 8" x 8" pan filled with 1/2" water (this will help prevent the cheesecake from cracking, by
keeping moisture in the oven while it bakes.) Bake about an hour and 15 minutes, or until the sides of
the cheesecake are set, but center jiggles just a little. Remove from oven and let set at room
temperature about 20 minutes. Sprinkle remaining bite-size snickers bars on top, and drizzle caramel
and chocolate sauces over top. Chill in refrigerator 4-5 hours before serving.
HELPFUL HINTS:
1. Buy the chocolate malt sauce in the squeeze bottle, it stores and pours easier!
2. Remove the top from the butterscotch caramel sauce and place container in microwave for about
20-30 seconds to soften up (if stiff).
3. This recipe is so awesome, you can eat the raw mix with a spoon (that's how I judge how much
chocolate to add to batter). Remember there are raw eggs!
4. A normal cheesecake of this size would feed 12-14, BUT this recipe is SO rich, you can easily
feed 20!!!
