Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
To make the crust: In a food processor, add the crushed graham crackers, butter, cane sugar, and cocoa. Pulse until completely combined and there are no bits of graham cracker or chunks of butter, and the mixture is uniform.
Transfer to a 9-inch springform pan and spread evenly. Using your hands, form the crust into the sides of the pan first, working your way all the way around. Then, press the remaining graham cracker mixture into the bottom of the tart pan creating an even layer.
Bake for 5 minutes, or until the crust looks dry. Remove from oven and let cool completely before filling.
Step 2
To make the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese, light brown sugar, sour cream, and lemon juice. Mix on low until combined, then speed up to high and whip for about a minute, until the brown sugar has combined completely, and the mixture looks fluffly. Scrape out into a separate bowl, and set aside.
Step 3
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract. Mix on low until combined, then gradually increase speed, until you are at full speed. Whisk until stiff peaks form.
Step 4
Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Transfer to the crust and spread evenly. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes to chill completely.
Step 5
In a medium bowl, add the caramel sauce and peanuts and fold to combine completely. Add on top of the cheesecake and spread evenly. Place back in the fridge for about 15 to 30 minutes, until the caramel has hardened.
Step 6
In a heatproof bowl, add the milk chocolate and heavy whipping cream. Microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring between each one, until the chocolate is completely melted. Add the milk chocolate ganache on top of the caramel and spread evenly.
FAQ's
Yes, if you prefer, you can use a store bought caramel sauce. My top pick for store bought caramel is King Cupboard's Organic Caramel Sauce.
Yes, you can, but it won't have as much flavor if you use unsalted. I wouldn't recommend.
This Eggless Snickers Cheesecake needs to be stored in the fridge in an airtight container.
