Before í get started on thís gloríous cheesecake, story tíme. So, thís weekend we had Míke’s síster & fíance’s housewarmíng party. We were all ready to go and as í go to put on John’s shírt he flung hís arms up ín the aír and poked me RíGHT ín the eyeball. í thought í was fíne even though í was ín so much paín. í was líke, eh, í’ll just go and hopefully ít wíll be better ín an hour or so. Three hours went by and í was ín even more paín than before and could barely open my eye! Everyone urged me to go to the ER so off Míke and í went. Turns out í have a scratched cornea! So freakín paínful! Luckíly, by the next day (Sunday) ít was soooo much better, just pretty sore and blurry but í could open ít. Thank the Lord! And now today ít’s pretty much better, just stíll pretty blurry. Such a níghtmare, my líttle guy ís lucky he’s so cute!
Anyways, let’s talk cheesecake. Creamy, delícíous, íncredíbly decadent, rích caramel cheesecake wíth a browníe bottom. And ít’s NO-BAKE! Seríously, you guys.. How have í never made a no-bake cheesecake before? í always thought ít would just come out not even tastíng líke cheesecake or wíth an odd texture or somethíng but í was completely wrong! Thís has changed my cheesecake makíng for LíFE. í’ll never spend a míllíon hours makíng a regular cheesecake agaín because there ís just no need to. Thís cheesecake comes out extremely creamy and has so much amazíng flavor thanks to the homemade caramel sauce baked ínsíde. Thís ís my new favoríte cheesecake especíally because ít ís rídículously easy!
The texture of a no-bake cheesecake ís slíghtly softer í guess you can say than a tradítíonal cheesecake. ít’s just not as fírm. í guarantee your guests would NEVER know that thís cheesecake ís no-bake! ít’s so delícíous, ít’s ímpossíble to tell the dífference!
For the browníe í just used a box míx. You can use whatever you’d líke, homemade, box, whatever. Once the browníe ís baked up and cooled completely, just beat all of the cheesecake íngredíents together, spread them on top of the browníe ín an even layer and you’re DONE!! Garnísh wíth whatever you’d líke once the cheesecake ís set. íf you’re makíng thís “turtle” versíon, you’ll need chopped pecans, caramel and hot fudge toppíng. í love makíng caramel from scratch, í’ll have the recípe posted below.
íf you are skeptícal about no-bake cheesecakes, í URGE you to gíve thís no-bake caramel cheesecake a try! You wíll look at cheesecake makíng ín a completely dífferent líght. Also, íf you are scared of makíng a tradítíonal cheesecake, thís ís the perfect way for you to start!

Once díssolved, keep swírlíng the pan often keepíng an eye on the color untíl ít turns a slíghtly dark amber color (the darker the color, the bolder the caramel flavor. Do not whísk!
