There is nothing healthy about this cheesecake. 🙂 Which is why when I make it, I make sure it is for a potluck. Everyone would have eaten it before I have a chance to go back for seconds.
Ingredients:
2 cups finely crushed shortbread cookies (about 37 cookies)
4 tbsp butter
32 oz cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup whipping cream
4 eggs
2 packages of caramel filled Hershey Kisses
Chocolate syrup
Caramel syrup
Directions:
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Mix crushed cookies and soften butter into a 13x19x2 pan. Firmly press into the bottom of the pan, being sure to cover the entire area. Bake for about 8 minutes or until golden brown.
In a large bowl beat cream cheese until creamy. Gradually beat in sugar and whipping cream. Add eggs in one a time, mixing each one thoroughly.
Pour about 1/4 of the batter over top of your shortbread crust. Then arrange your kisses on the bottom of the pan. Then poor remaining batter into the pan.
Cook for 40 – 50 minutes or until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly. Let cool for about an hour before placing in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours.
When you are ready to serve, garnish with caramel and chocolate syrup and a few extra pieces of candy.
Tips:
- Works best if all ingredients are room temperature, except for the chocolates
- Unwrap your kisses before you start and keep in a cool place. If your kitchen it extremely warm, store in the fridge until you are ready to us them.
- When cutting your cheese cake, use a wet towel to remove the access. This will make for cleaner slices
- You can use other candies, however, very dense or hard candies will not be as easy to bite or cut through
- This one was cut to serve 24, you can however, cut them smaller to serve more
