Turtle Cheesecake

This Cheesecake is pretty good. I'm not a big fan of nuts, but I did like this recipe. It is very sticky though. So be prepared.

You will need

• A 9" spring form pan

Crust

• 2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
• 2tbs unsalted butter melted

Filling

• 14 oz carmels
• 1 (5oz) can evaporated milk
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 2 (8oz) pkg cream cheese (softened)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. In a large bowl mix wafer crumbs and butter and press into the spring form pan.
3. In a heavy sauce pan melt the carmels over low heat with the evaporated milk. Stir frequently until smooth. Then pour into crust and top with pecans.
4. In a large bowl combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Beat well until smooth. Then melt chocolate and blend into cream cheese mixture. Pour into the pan.
5. Bake 40-50 minutes or until filling is set.
6. Loosen up edges but don't remove from the pan until completely cooled. Chill for 4 or more hours before serving.
