Som alla kakor startade även denna som en smet. Två philadelphiaförpackningar rymmer den här!
Crust
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs (jag bytte ut hälften mot kokos!)
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
Filling
2 lbs. cream cheese (nä, jag har fan ingen aning om vad "lbs" betyder, så jag chansade på förpackningar. Det blev ju bra!)
2 cups sugar
2 tbsp. flour
4 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 tsp. vanilla (använde vanligt vaniljsocker)
3/4 cup toffee pieces
Caramel Sauce
1 cup sugar
6 tbsp. butter
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. (175 grader celsius)
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, 2 tbsp. of sugar and melted butter. Press into the bottom of a 10 inch spring form pan. Bake crust for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
For the filling, mix the cream cheese and sugar with a paddle attachment on medium speed for about 3 minutes. Add in the flour on low speed. Add eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides and the bottom after each egg. Add the egg yolks and vanilla. Fold in the toffee pieces.
Wrap aluminum foil around the outside of the spring form pan, then pour the filling over the crust. Bake in a water batch for approximately 1 1/2 hours. A knife inserted should come out clean when cake is done. Cool the cheesecake to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight. Don't remove the aluminum foil until you are ready to serve, and top with the caramel sauce.
Caramel Sauce
Heat sugar on high heat in a heavy-bottomed 2 quart sauce pan. As the sugar begins to melt, stir constantly with a whisk. As soon as the sugar crystals begin to melt (should be dark amber in color), add the butter to the pan (if you don't do this immediately, the caramel will taste burnt). Continue to whisk until butter has melted.
Once the butter has melted, take the pan off the heat. Count to three, then add the cream to the pan and continue to whisk to incorporate. Whisk until caramel sauce is smooth. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes, then pour over the cheesecake. You'll have a good amount, which you can serve alongside, or save for ice cream later on. Just microwave any extra caramel for a few seconds to loosen it up again (after being refrigerated).
