Slightly Less Sinful Snickers Cheesecake Food

NO-BAKE SNICKERS CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with foil or parchment paper: set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until crumbs are well coated with butter.
• Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and an inch up the sides of the prepared pan. Set in the freezer while you make the filling.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or with a handheld electric mixer, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes.
• Add the confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed until the sugar is moistened. Then turn the speed up to medium and continue mixing until well combined, about 2 minutes.
• Add the vanilla, lemon juice, and salt. Mix on medium speed until well incorporated, about 1 minute.
• If using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, switch to the whisk attachment and add the heavy cream. Beat on low speed until the cream is well mixed in. Turn the speed up to high and beat until the batter becomes thickened.
• Gently fold in the chopped candy bars. Pour the filling over the prepared crust and spread to the edges of the pan. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
• Just before serving, remove the sides of the pan. Top the cheesecake with the remaining chopped candy bar and drizzle with caramel sauce.

NO-BAKE SNICKERS CHEESECAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• To make the crust, in a medium size mixing bowl combine the Oreo crumbs, granulated sugar and salt. Pour the melted butter over top and stir until a soft wet mixture forms. Firmly press into a standard size pie plate or a 9-inch spring form pan. Chill for 2 hours before adding the filling.
• Meanwhile, let your cream cheese and sour cream warm on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl) beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the sour cream, salt, and vanilla, mix until combined.
• In a small bowl mix the water along with the gelatin, then place in the microwave and heat for 25 seconds.
• Remove and whisk for 30 seconds, then allow to cool for 2 minutes.
• On low speed, beat in the gelatin, then fold in the whipped cream. Add the Snickers chunks and fold in. Pour half of the filling into the crust, drizzle 1 tablespoon caramel sauce over top, then carefully swirl into the filling. Add the remaining filling and repeat with the remaining caramel. Spread into an even layer. Top with peanuts, caramel, fudge (if desired) and Snickers chunks. Chill for at least 4 hours before slicing and serving, preferably overnight.

NO-BAKE SNICKERS CHEESECAKE!

Steps:

• Melt the butter in the microwave on short bursts on in a small pan over a medium heat.
• Blitz the biscuits, cocoa powder, and peanuts in a food processor to a small crumb, add the melted butter, and pulse a few times until it is combined well.
• Tip into a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin and press down firmly - chill in the refrigerator whilst you do the rest!
• Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring gently or microwave in short bursts until fully melted - leave to cool slightly whilst doing the rest.
• With an electric mixer (I used my KitchenAid) Whisk the Cream Cheese and Icing sugar, Carnations Caramel, and Vanilla until smooth - Whilst mixing, pour in the melted chocolate and whip again until smooth.
• Pour in the liquid double cream and continue to whip the mixture until it is starting to thicken a lot like a Mousse does (I use speed 6/10 on my KitchenAid) It won't take too long as the chocolate will harden quickly and cause it to thicken.
• Fold through the chopped Snickers bits through the mixture - Pour the mix on to the biscuit base, smooth over, cover, and chill in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours hours or preferably overnight.
• Remove the cheesecake from the tin carefully. I whip together my double cream and icing sugar till thick and pipeable.
• Drizzle over the caramel, and pipe the whipped cream on using a 2D Closed Star Piping Tip. Sprinkle on some chopped peanuts, and add a piece of Snickers to each Cream swirl!

SINFUL SNICKERS CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Prepare crust: Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Cover the bottom of a 10-inch spring-form pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Using a food processor, finely crush all the Oreo cookies.
• Add melted butter, water and sugar to the cookie crumbs and continue using processor until the mixture is well blended.
• Turn this cookie mixture out into the spring-form pan and using your fingers, gently work the cookie mixture until the bottom of the pan is covered with about one inch up on the sides.
• Bake for only 6 or 7 minutes, no longer or the crust will be too hard.
• It is okay if the crust rises a little during the baking-- if this occurs, use the flat bottom of a glass to gently press down and set aside to cool.
• Prepare filling: Using a large bowl and an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until it is light and fluffy.
• When cream cheese is fluffy, add in one egg and mix well.
• Add second egg and mix well.
• Add in sour cream and sugar.
• Remove electric mixture to gently fold in the Nestle' chocolate chips and chopped Snickers candy bars.
• Pour batter onto the crust and spread the mixture out from the middle to all the sides to help it bake evenly.
• Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place spring-form pan in middle and bake at 375F for about 45 minutes, or until top is light brown.
• It's ok if the middle of the cheesecake is sunk in a little.
• Transfer the cheese cake to a rack and cool while still in the spring-form pan.
• Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the cheesecake and refrigerate (still in spring-form pan) for at least four hours or more- overnight is best.
• Prepare glaze: Melt chocolate chips, butter and only 1/3 of the heavy whipping cream in a double boiler over medium heat until just at the melting stage.
• Remove from heat and stir mixture until smooth.
• (You can use a microwave for this part but ensure the bowl is microwave safe).
• While still warm, stir in remaining heavy whipping cream and mix until well blended.
• Using a sharp paring knife, run is around the edges of the spring-form pan to gently separate the cheesecake from the pan sides.
• Release the spring-form and remove from the cheesecake.
• Place cheesecake on serving dish and pour the chocolate glaze into the shallow crater.
• Sprinkle crushed peanuts or extra Snickers shavings on top.
• Refrigerate to allow the glaze to set.
