Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

28 regular stuffed Oreos
7 Tablespoons melted butter
1 (14 ounce) bag individual wrapped caramels
1 (5 ounce) can of evaporated milk
1 cup chopped pecans
3 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese
1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350*F Bake pecans in oven for 6 minutes, set aside. In a food processor or blender, blend up Oreo's with cream filling until a powder. In a bowl combine Oreos and butter. Press this along the bottom and sides of your cheesecake pan. Place crust on a cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove and set aside. In a double boiler or heat proof bowl over a pot of simmering water, add unwrapped caramels and evaporated milk. Stir regularly until caramels are melted and mixture is creamy. Pour Caramel mixture on top of the Oreo crust. Save approximately 3 Tablespoons for the drizzle on top. Sprinkle pecans on top of caramel. In a bowl combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Mix well, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add in eggs and mix well. Melt Chocolate Chips in a double boiler (reserve 3 Tablespoons for drizzle on top). Slowly swirl chocolate into cream cheese mixture. Do not over swirl or it will turn into chocolate cheesecake. Pour cream cheese mixture on top of caramel pecan layer. Bake on a cookie sheet for 40 minutes or until just barely set. Remove from oven and allow to chill in refrigerator overnight until fully set. Just before serving, drizzle with saved caramel and chocolate. Devour!
