Preparation

Step 1

For the Crust:
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter and press them into the bottom of a greased 8 inch square baking pan.

Bake in a preheated 350F/180C oven until lightly golden brown, about 8-10 minutes and set aside.

For the Cheesecake:
Cream the cream cheese, mix in the caramel sauce followed by the sugar, the egg, the vanilla extract and finally the mini Rolos and pour the mixture into the baking pan.

Bake in a preheated 350F/180C oven until the cheesecake is set, about 30-35 minutes, set aside and let cool.

For the Chocolate Ganache:
Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler, mixing until smooth and pour the chocolate over the cheesecake.

Place the caramel sauce in the corner of a small bag, cut a small hole in the corner and slowly squeeze out the caramel creating lines across the chocolate.
