Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Start the crust by beating the eggs with the vanilla. Place the butter, cocoa and sugar into a metal bowl or top of a double boiler. Heat over a pot of water, stirring constantly, until butter has melted. Whisk in the eggs. Beat in the flour and pecans. Pour into a 9-inch cake round and bake for 15 minutes. Let cool. Beat the cream cheese, eggs, sugar and vanilla until well-blended. Pour the mixture over the brownie crust. Mix 1/4 cup caramel sauce with 1/4 cup chocolate sauce. Pour this mixture on top of the cheesecake filling. Use a knife to swirl, being careful not to touch the brownie crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until filling has set. Top with a layer of caramel sauce. Sprinkle with pecans. Drizzle with remaining chocolate syrup.
