This is a melt in your mouth cheesecake. I added an extra tablespoon of butter to the cookie crumb crust, and I baked it in about 2 inches of water. It came out perfect. Drizzle it with caramel ice cream topping and sprinkle with chopped pecans an it looks beautiful.

WOW.... Just make sure to bake by hot bath. I also baked the crust (which I also gave the sides an 3/4 inch so the caramel wouldn't burn) 10 minutes before hand and cooled completely as suggested by a reviewer. Instead of melting the chocolate, I mixed the chips in with the batter. I also drizzled extra caramel and chocolate over the top and sprinkled a few nuts to make it look really professional (it also filled in tiny cracks it had.) This cheesecake is awesome!!!

WOW! The first time I made this I didn't get to taste it because it was donated to a charity auction. It sold for over $200! However, my friend is a caramel-a-holic so I made one for her surprise birthday party. I was a hit and not a crumb was left over. I'll be making this again (and again).

Whoa! This is superb! I did make a few changes...baking it in a 13x9 pan works well, and that way you can cut it into neat pieces and remove any unsightly bits before serving. To do this: for the crust, combine 3 C graham cracker crumbs, a pinch of salt and 1 stick of butter and press into the bottom of the pan. Double the caramel layer and the cheesecake part, using slightly less sugar (3/4 to 7/8 C after doubling) because it would be VERY sweet as is. Assemble the cheesecake as stated, and bake at 350 for about 35 to 40 minutes or until the center jiggles just a tiny bit when you shake the pan. Cool completely, then refrigerate until chilled or over night. Cut into SMALL squares, because this is just about the richest dessert you can imagine! You may want to cut off the sides, too, because they can get a little tougher even if the middle's perfectly set. Mmmm...definitely Cheesecake Factory material!

Used this recipe to make my very first cheesecake for a bake off at work...and guess what?!!! I won!! I used a couple of suggestions that varied from the original recipe and they loved it. I won three categories: best tasting, best presentation, and 1st place overall!! A definite winner and will definitely be making again.

This came out awesome!! I made it with an oreo crust instead of the nilla wafers and added more butter to the crums as suggested by others. I also baked it in a water bath as suggested as well. This is probably the best cheesecake ever!!

I baked this for my wife for her birthday, and we both loved it!. Its a great-tasting mixture, and chocolate/caramel/pecans really added another dimension to the cheesecake taste. The only things I would change would be to raise the edges of the crust to prevent burning of the caramel filling, as others have mentioned, and would bake it in a waterbath, to prevent cracking.

I make this for every holiday party, I am demanded to. I add hot fudge and carmel ice cream sauce to the top with chopped pecans. It is the best cheesecake I have ever had. I even lost a cookoff becuase the jugdes thought it was bought in the store!!!

This was excellent!! I doubled the cheesecake base to make a thicker cake and refrigerated the crust over night before making the batter and baking which helped the crust hold up better.

I make a LOT of cheesecake and this was the best yet! My recommendations: Use more butter to keep the crust together, bake the crust for 10 minutes at 350 and then let cool before adding the remaining ingredients, reserve 1/3 of the caramels to melt for a topping, and I always add a tablespoon of flour to my cheesecakes to keep the cake dense and not gooey. Also, toast extra pecans to use as a topping with the caramel. This baking method works great and the crust won't crack: Bake at 450 for 10 minutes, turn oven down to 250 without opening the oven and bake for 30 minutes, then turn oven off (still without opening the oven) and leave cake in another 30 minutes. And be sure to make and add 50% more filling to make a higher cake.

This was better the second day. I didn't like the soft, baked nuts, so next time I would omit the pecans from the caramel layer and put them on top after it is cooked. I also added the chocolate chips as is, instead of melting them. Great served with chocolate sauce drizzled over the top

What a wonderful recipe!! As others suggested, I added an extra package of cream cheese and more butter to hold the crust together. Also, I pressed the crust up approximately an inch high on the side. Turned out great!

This recipe was fairly easy to make. It was my first shot at a cheesecake and it was for easter dinner. Everyone loved it! It was a great hit. I read some of the other reviews and made the crust higher on he sides and my carmel didn't burn. If I only liked chocolate this would have been great for me, yet I pleased everyone else which was my goal. Thanks for a great recipe.
