    Crockpot Caramel Cheesecake


    Source of Recipe


    Simmering Crockpot

    Recipe Introduction


    When cheesecake is baked in the oven, the top usually cracks unless you bake it in a water bath.
    In your crockpot, you won't have that problem because the baking environment is so moist.
    Make sure that your springform pan fits easily in your slow cooker, with a space at least 1/2" all the way around
    between the pan and the sides of the crockpot.

    List of Ingredients




    1-1/4 cups chocolate covered graham cracker crumbs
    1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
    1 Tbsp. brown sugar
    1/4 cup butter, melted
    2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
    1 (3 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1/4 cup sugar
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/3 cup evaporated milk
    1 tsp. vanilla
    2 Tbsp. flour
    1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted

    Recipe



    In medium bowl, combine crumbs, walnuts, 1 Tbsp. brown sugar and melted butter and mix until crumbly.
    Pat into bottom of 7" springform pan and set aside.
    In large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
    Add 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup sugar and beat well. Add eggs, milk, vanilla, and flour and beat until smooth.
    Pour this mixture over crumb crust in prepared pan.
    Melt chocolate chips in microwave oven or over very low heat.
    Drizzle over cheesecake in pan, then using knife, marble by drawing knife through the chocolate and cheesecake batter.
    Place a rack or ring of crumpled aluminum foil in bottom of 5 quart crockpot.
    Then fold two 24" long pieces of heavy duty foil in half the long way, then in half again, and place over rack
    or ring of foil in crockpot, making an 'X', letting the edges hang down over the sides of the crockpot.
    Place the springform pan on top of all of this, making sure it's level. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 2-1/2 to 3 hours.
    Turn off crockpot, don't remove lid, and let stand for 1 hour.
    Carefully remove cheesecake from crockpot, using the strips of foil you placed over the rack, and chill for at least 3 hours.
    Remove sides of pan and serve with hot chocolate sauce or caramel fudge ice cream topping and some whipped cream.
