For crust
seven 5- by 2 1/2-inch graham crackers
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans, toasted and cooled

For topping
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.

Provided by 45 Carry Chef

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 2h

Yield 8-16 slices, 8-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups sugar, divided
2 cups chopped pecans, divided
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
3 large eggs
2 cups sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon butter flavoring
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup butterscotch caramel ice cream topping
1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475°F.
  • For Crust, pour butter over graham cracker crumbs, .5 cup sugar, .5 cup pecans; stir well. Press into bottom of a 9" springform pan. Set aside.
  • For Filling, using an electric mixer, cream together cream cheese and 1.5 cups sugar, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add sour cream, flavorings, and 1 cup of pecan pieces and stir. Pour over crust and bake at 475 F for 10 minutes. Lower the oven to 300 F and bake an additional 50 minutes. Turn oven off, open the door and let cake remain in oven for 1 hour. Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate. When ready to serve remove ring from springform pan. Spread whipped topping on top of cake. Drizzle cake with Butterscotch Caramel topping and sprinkle .5 cup of pecans on top.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect butterscotch flavor, use a combination of dark brown sugar and butter. The brown sugar provides a rich, molasses-like sweetness, while the butter adds a nutty flavor and helps to create a smooth, creamy texture.
  • For a gooey, caramel-like center, cook the butterscotch mixture until it reaches a temperature of 230 degrees Fahrenheit (110 degrees Celsius). If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the mixture by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it's ready.
  • To prevent the cheesecake from cracking, bake it in a water bath. This will help to create a moist, even bake.
  • To ensure that the cheesecake is fully set, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Before serving, garnish the cheesecake with whipped cream, caramel sauce, or chopped pecans.

Conclusion:

This butterscotch caramel pecan cheesecake is a decadent and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, buttery flavor, gooey caramel center, and pecan-studded crust, this cheesecake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
