How to Make Turtles Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing and flouring it.
- In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Fold in the chopped pecans and caramel candies.
- Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled graham cracker crust.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once completely cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Before serving, melt the chocolate chips and drizzle over the top of the cheesecake. Garnish with additional pecans if desired.
