Ingredients
  

Graham cracker crust
  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 0.5 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 packages cream cheese, softened 8-ounce packages
  • 1 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cups caramel sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt optional, for garnish

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined and press into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with 1 cup of granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  3. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled brownie crust. Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the cheesecake and swirl with a knife.
  4. Bake for 50-60 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center. Turn off the oven and let cool in the oven for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Before serving, drizzle remaining caramel sauce over the top and sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
