Description

An indulgent and creamy no-bake cheesecake topped with a luxurious white chocolate ganache and sweet caramel sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup caramel sauce
  • 6 ounces white chocolate, chopped
  • ½ cup heavy cream (for ganache)

Instructions

  1. Mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until well combined, then press this mixture firmly into a springform pan to form the crust.
  2. Beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
  3. Whip the heavy cream in another bowl until stiff peaks form, then gently fold this into the cream cheese mixture until beautifully blended.
  4. Spread the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top before drizzling with caramel sauce.
  5. Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until it has set completely.
  6. Warm the ½ cup of heavy cream until simmering, then pour it over the chopped white chocolate and let sit for a minute before stirring until smooth.
  7. Pour the white chocolate ganache over the set cheesecake and spread it evenly for a glossy finish.
  8. Return the cheesecake to the fridge for another hour to let the ganache set before slicing and serving.

Notes

Slice with a hot knife for clean edges and serve on chilled plates. Add a drizzle of extra caramel and sea salt for an elegant touch.
