Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups finely crushed chocolate wafer cookies
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 32 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 6-8 regular-sized Twix bars, chopped
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • A pinch of sea salt
  • Additional chopped Twix bars (optional)
  • Chocolate shavings (optional)
  • Sea salt flakes (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Wrap the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan tightly with aluminum foil.
  • For the Crust: Combine crushed chocolate wafer cookies and melted butter in a bowl. Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • For the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in sour cream and vanilla extract. Gently fold in chopped Twix bars.
  • Pour the filling over the crust. Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Add hot water to the roasting pan, filling it halfway up the sides of the springform pan (water bath).
  • Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let it cool completely at room temperature. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.
  • For the Caramel Topping: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt granulated sugar until it turns into a golden amber color. Stir in heavy cream, butter, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and creamy.
  • Pour the caramel topping over the chilled cheesecake. Garnish with additional chopped Twix bars, chocolate shavings, and sea salt flakes, if desired. Slice and serve.
