Instructions

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until it resembles wet sand. Firmly press this into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Making the filling

  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, maintaining airiness.
  • Fold in chopped Snickers and M&M's by hand to evenly distribute.

Assembling the cheesecake

  • Pour the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.

Finishing touches

  • Remove cheesecake from the springform pan. Drizzle with caramel and chocolate sauce and sprinkle with additional chopped Snickers and M&M's.

Serving

  • Slice, serve, and enjoy this luscious cheesecake with loved ones.

Notes

Ensure to soften cream cheese and avoid over-whipping heavy cream. Chill for optimal flavor melding.
