How to Make Chocolate Eruption Cheesecake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Spray a 10-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Prepare the crust (see recipe below) and press it firmly into the bottom of the pan.
  4. In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces of cream cheese with 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  5. Add 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, 4 large eggs, ½ cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  6. Beat on low speed for 5 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until completely smooth.
  7. Remove 1/3 of the batter and mix it with 8 ounces of melted white chocolate until combined.
  8. Pour the white chocolate batter into the prepared springform pan.
  9. Gently fold in ½ cup chopped nuts and ½ cup chocolate chips into the remaining cheesecake batter.
  10. Gently fold in 1 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts into the remaining batter.
  11. Pour half of the remaining cheesecake batter over the white chocolate layer.
  12. Spoon half of 1 cup of caramel sauce over the batter.
  13. Top with the remaining cheesecake batter and the remaining caramel sauce.
  14. Swirl the batter gently with a butter knife, creating a marbled effect.
  15. The pan will be very full. This is expected.
  16. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but the center is slightly jiggly.
  17. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  18. Remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  19. Before serving, drizzle melted milk chocolate, white chocolate, and dark chocolate over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
  20. Garnish with large chocolate shavings and dust with powdered sugar.
