🔪 Instructions

This is an overview of the recipe. The full instructions are below in the recipe card.

Preheat the oven to 325°F.

How to prepare the crust

1. In a food processor with S-blade inserted, add the vanilla wafers, and pulse until they become crumbs.
2. Add the melted butter to the crumbs and pulse until just combined.
3. Press the crumbs into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to make the crust for the Twix cheesecake. Set aside.

Prepare the caramel Twix cheesecake filling

1. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer with beaters attached, beat the cream cheese and sugar until well blended.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating the mixing after the addition of each egg until each egg is well incorporated.
3. Pour the cheesecake batter over the crust.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 55 minutes, the center of the cake will just slightly jiggle.
5. Remove cheesecake from the oven. Run a knife around the edge of the springform pan. Do not remove the cheesecake from the pan. Set the cake on a cooling rack to cool completely.
6. Refrigerate cheesecake for at least 4 hours up to overnight.
7. Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Place on a cake plate.
8. To make the caramel sauce, in a medium-size microwave-safe-bowl combine the caramel bits with 1 Tablespoon heavy cream, microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth and melted.
9. Spread the caramel all over the top of the cheesecake.
10. In another medium-size microwave-safe bowl place the chocolate chips and microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth and melted.
11. Spoon the chocolate in 8 equal circles around the edges of the cheesecake.
12. Cut the mini Twix bars in half and place one half on top of each chocolate spot.
13. Optional, you can also stack up leftover Twix in the middle of the cheesecake.
14. Pop the cheesecake back in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set up the chocolate. Slice and serve.

❄️ Make ahead, storage, and freezer tips

This cheesecake will keep up to 5 days refrigerated. Be sure to keep the cake in a covered airtight container.

The cheesecake can also be wrapped in plastic wrap or aluminum foil while being kept in the refrigerator.

Freezer Instructions

The cheesecake can be stored in the freezer for up to three months.

I recommend that you freeze this cheesecake with just the cheesecake layer. When defrosted, add the caramel layer and top with candies.

👩🏻‍🍳 Eileen's Tips for Success

• The cream cheese should be at room temperature before starting this candy bar cheesecake. Otherwise, you won't have a smooth cheesecake.
• A stand mixer can be used to make the cheesecake. If using the stand mixer, use the paddle attachment to blend the cheesecake mixture. Be sure to use a spatula to scrape the sides down a few times to ensure all ingredients blend well.
