  • cup butter, melted
  • 3 packages (8- ounce) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 container (8- ounce) sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup (6- ounce package) semisweet chocolate morsels
  • 1 jar (12- ounce) caramel topping

Instructions

Combine first 3 ingredients: stir well. Firmly press mixture into bottom and 1 inch up sides of a lightly greased 9-inch springform pan.

Bake at 325 degrees for 10 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack.

Beat cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add 1-1/4 cups sugar, beating well.

Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition and scraping sides and bottom as needed. Stir in sour cream and vanilla.

Pour batter into prepared crust.

Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour and 5 minutes. (Center will not be completely set.) Turn oven off, and partially open oven door; leave cake in oven 1 hour. Cool completely on a wire rack; cover and chill at least 8 hours. Gently run a knife around edge of cheesecake to release sides of pan; carefully remove pan.

Transfer cheesecake to a serving plate.

Melt 1/4 cup butter in a small heavy saucepan; add chocolate morsels. Stir over low heat just until chocolate melts and mixture blends.

Spread warm chocolate mixture over cheesecake; chill 15 minutes.

Combine caramel topping and pecans in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, over medium heat; boil 2 minutes.

Remove from heat, and cool 5 minutes.

Spread over chocolate; cool completely.

Serve immediately or cover and chill.

Let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes before serving.
