Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs

• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a medium bowl. Press the mixture onto the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and flour until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
4. Melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Once melted, stir the chocolate into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
5. Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
6. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly browned.
7. Remove from the oven and let the cheesecake cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
8. Before serving, drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the cheesecake and sprinkle with chopped pecans.
9. Slice and enjoy the ultimate indulgence!
