Instructions
00:00 Introduction
For the crust
00:35 In a medium-sized bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs, finely chopped pecans, and brown sugar until combined.
01:40 Add melted butter and stir until all crumbs are moistened.
02:05 Press mixture evenly and firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9” springform pan. Set aside.
For the chocolate ripple
03:35 Prepare chocolate ripple first (so it has time to cool) by combining heavy cream and chocolate in a medium-sized microwave-safe mixing bowl. Microwave on high for 25 seconds. Stir well and return to microwave for another 25 seconds. Whisk until smooth and set aside while you prepare the filling.
For the cheesecake
Preheat oven to 325F (165C).
04:24 In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, combine cream cheese and sugars. Beat on medium speed until smooth, creamy, and lump free.
06:13 Add sour cream and vanilla extract and stir on low speed until combined.
06:41 In a separate dish, lightly beat one egg. Add to the cheesecake batter, stirring briefly on low speed until just combined. Repeat with remaining eggs, and scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
08:43 Pour approximately a third of the cheesecake batter into the prepared crust. Drizzle half of caramel sauce over cheesecake layer followed by half of the chocolate ripple (this will not cover all of the cheesecake batter, this is fine). Pour another third of the cheesecake batter evenly overtop. Drizzle remaining half of caramel sauce over cheesecake, followed by remaining half of chocolate ripple. Top with the remaining cheesecake batter.
11:18 Place the pan on the center rack of your preheated oven. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the cheesecake is almost set (center will be jiggly and edges should be set and may puff slightly).
11:50 Remove from oven and cool until almost room temperature (alternatively, to help reduce risk of cracks, turn off oven, crack the door, and allow it to sit for 1 hour). Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight before topping and serving.
Topping
12:05 Once cheesecake is chilled, prepare your toppings. Make ganache by combining chocolate and heavy cream in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 25 seconds and stir well. If not yet smooth, microwave again and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
12:33 Drizzle caramel sauce and prepared ganache over cheesecake. Scatter pecans overtop.
14:10 For easy slicing, chill cheesecake in refrigerator for 15 minutes to allow toppings to set.
14:22 Once cheesecake has chilled completely, remove springform ring, slice and serve.
Notes
Chocolate for Ripple & Topping
I prefer to use semisweet or dark chocolate. You may use a chopped baking bar or use couverture chocolate. Chocolate chips are not my preference but will work in a pinch.
Storing
Return ring to pan and cover with foil. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Cheesecake may also be tightly wrapped and frozen.

The dog wandering around and the children. Classic busy Mom still trying to get things done. Probably not as much of a thing not that people text insted of phone as much, but never failed I would get on the phone and a child would need immediate attention. Now I get the same issue with my cat-always misbehaving when she knows I am busy with something. So glad to get your recipes and see a bit of family life from you.
🤣 I remember the phone always ringing at the worst possible time when I was a child! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. It can get a little chaotic sometimes but I wouldn't change it for anything. :)
I'm excited!

Hi Sam how are you I’m Laura I love this recipe I’m going to make this❤
I'm doing well. I hope you love it! :)
Hi Sam! Although I’ve been watching you for several years, I’m just now finding your channel and totally loving it! I’ve been following you because I own a small gluten free bakery in Texas and I like to take your recipes and make them fit the diets of my customers.
I’d really like to start my own channel like yours because I own the only bakery using gfjules flour, which is the number 1 rated in the country right now and I think it would help our people understand how easy it is to cook gluten-free at home.
I’ve seen how far you’ve come and I’d like to know if you can share with me where your journey started with CZcams. How did you start your blog, which came first, when and what type of cameras did you use? I don’t understand any of those things, but I’d love to understand from someone I’ve watched and envied for so long. Thank you! Donna!
Super good Sam thank you very much bless to your family 9out
Thank you so much! :)
You are a sweet little sugar spun and I love your channel.
Love your channel and recipes...would you be able to do a Series on Cakes/Desserts for 4 people? ie. Using ONE brick of creamcheese... squares in small 8 x 8 pans... dessert for us empty nesters to make when having Canasta night with one other couple? I find I make dessert for us 4...then have 3/4 of a springform or bundt pan cake left...and it is too much to have for leftover! thanks!
This looks so good! New to this channel. Could you do a butter pecan cheesecake? I'd love to see your spin on it
Oh that's a good idea! It's something to add to my list. :)
Just made one as a trial, good thing I did a trial - I forgot the Vanilla 🤦♀️🤣. We are still going to try it, maybe the brown sugar, ganache and caramel will cover some of what its lacking 😅
Tastes amazing even without the vanilla 😅
Starting to learn how to bake? How did you crust your graham
The stand mixer is also electric the one in your hand is most times called a hand mixer. Most mixers are electric there are some hand crank mixers that are manually operated.
Any recommendations for the candy thermometer ❤
Here is an affiliate link for the one I use. :) amzn.to/46rdvP0
Thank you very much 😊 the cheesecake looks so amazing 😍❤️💕
Just got it ordered 🤩🤩
🤤🤤😋😋
Hello stand mixer , I miss you 🥰
Sam looks amazing!Can I make this in a Muffinpan?
I think that could probably work. :)
I would love turtle cheesecake, if I didn't HATE the taste of pecans !
Can you do a video on how to make caramel apples? Also I’m wondering if you can make caramel apples with apples you picked, can you
I have added it to my list, but unfortunately I don't think I will be able to get there this year. :(
@@SugarSpunRun that’s okay, I’m just trying to figure out if you can use apples you picked for Carmel apples
Must you use all the sugar you do? Does it change the consistency of the filling? I cook for a diabetic and that is a lot of sugar in a recipe for him.
I would recommend my regular cheesecake instead. It has less sugar to it. You really need all of the sugar for the filling. czcams.com/video/O1fTQ_5dBw0/video.htmlsi=c-LygrAG_-zy1Bbo
could you do a series on Keto desserts?@@SugarSpunRun
Looks fuckin💣🔥🔥🤤💯
