I am a sucker for this chocolate caramel pecan cheesecake. If you are feeling daring, it's fairly simple and every time I make it, I get a marriage proposal. :) :
Chocolate Caramel Pecan Cheesecake
2 cups Oreo cookie Crumbs
6 Tbsp. margarine or butter, melted
1 bag (14 oz.) Caramels
1 can (5 oz.) evaporated milk
1 cup Pecan Pieces
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
4 squares Baker's Semi-Sweet Chocolate, melted, cooled slightly
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
Preheat oven to 350°F if using a silver 9-inch springform pan (or to 325°F if using a dark nonstick 9-inch springform pan). Mix crumbs and margarine; press firmly onto bottom and 1 inch up side of pan. Bake 10 minutes.
Microwave caramels and milk in small microwavable bowl on HIGH 4 minutes or until caramels are completely melted, stirring after 2 minutes. Pour over crust; sprinkle with pecans.
Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add chocolate and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended; pour over pecans. Place springform pan on baking sheet.
Bake 45 minutes or until center is almost set. Run knife or metal spatula around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool before removing rim of pan. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Store leftover cheesecake in refrigerator.
