~ Snickers Bar Cheesecake ~
1--9 oz pkg chocolate wafer cookies, finely ground
1/4 cup butter, melted
3--8 oz pkgs cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 T vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream, divided
1--1 1/2 lb snack-size Snickers Bars**
(**each cut into sixths)
Fudge Topping, purchased
sweetened whipped cream
Preheat oven to 325F.
Combine cookie crumbs and butter until well blended.
Press into bottom and about 1 inch up the sides of
a 9 1/2 to 10 inch springform pan. In a large bowl,
beat together cream cheese and sugar with an electric
mixer on medium speed until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla and heavy
cream, beating 3 to 4 minutes. Fold in 1 1/2 cups
cut-up Snickers pieces. Turn into prepared crumb
lined pan. Bake 1 hour and 15 to 25 minutes, or
until cheesecake is almost set. Let cool to room
temperature on wire rack. Sprinkle remaining
candy pieces over top of cheesecake. Refrigerate
at least 4 to 5 hours before serving. Run a knife
around edge of pan to loosen cake and remove
sides of pan. To serve, drizzle slices with
fudge topping and top with a dollop of
sweetened whipped cream, if desired.
