This was delicious! The caramel layer was gooey, the cheesecake was creamy, and it was all around great! However, the bake time on it wasn't right. When I cut into the cheesecake, the middle was not cooked. So we could only eat the outside. Next time, I will not turn the oven way down to 225.

Phenomenal cheesecake. I made it for my husband's birthday and he keeps on telling me, "Cheesecake doesn't get any better than this." I followed other's suggestions and saved half of the caramel & chocolate for the top of the cake. I read that putting flour in cheesecake gives it more of a cake-like consistency so I omitted that. It required a longer cooking time than in the original recipe, but it was absolutely worth the time and effort. Make the toffee-lovers in your life happy, and try this cake!

The was an awesome recipe. It did take some time to make, but it was worth it!

This cheesecake is awesome! I love toffee and I love cheesecake and this makes a great combination. It is very rich and the texture was perfect. I do not think I would ever try this one in a 9" pan. I sed a 10" and it was still a very thick cheesecake. I could not quit eating this. I had to cook it longer than the recipe required. I just kept checking it every few minutes until I felt that it was done. I will definitely make this one again.

it was wonderful! i will definitely make this again.....with the changes that other reviewers mentioned. it lasted us a really long time and everyone in my family loved it!

This was awful. It was like eating a bowl of hot fudge. The cheesecake was masked entirely by the caramel/chocolate layers. If you still decide to make it, be sure to halve the caramel/chocolate mixture and then divide that between the top and bottom. Using an Oreo crust was further chocolate overkill, stick with vanilla wafers.

Killer cheese cake! Made it for a special 50th B'day celebration. It was not an easy cake, because I do not make cakes very often. I did make some changes as suggested by other reviewers--like dividing the caramel (BUT, next time I will only save enough caramel to drizzle over top, because the top caramel layer made it too hard to cut the cake) & using chocolate wafers, also using a 10" pan (using 3c. wafers instead). Also, changed my cooking time to cook a bit longer. Did not add the toffee to the cheesecake batter as suggested by many--I like having the smooth cheesecake batter & the layer of toffee. I also made my own caramel sauce (only because I have a fantastic recipe) & yumm....it did the trick on this already killer cake. Allow yourself 1-2 days ahead to make it--I think it tasted the best the 3rd day.

My customers lovvveeeddd this cheesecake so much so they think I am suppose to have it everyday. It is a keeper! Thanks for posting.

Awesome! I made this to take to a family gathering for Canadian Thanksgiving, and it received rave reviews. Reading the comments of others was very helpful - I made the recipe in a 10 inch springform pan. I used Oreo cookie crumbs (2 cups), half light cream cheese, and 5 eggs (instead of 4 eggs and two yolks). I put half of the caramel mixture over the baked cookie crumbs and the other half on the top of the cooked cheesecake. I folded 3 crushed Skor bars into the cream cheese batter and sprinkled a fourth crushed bar on top of the cheesecake (over the caramel layer). I baked the cheesecake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes, and at 250 degrees for 1 hour and 35 minutes, with a pan of water on the oven rack below the cheesecake. I did let it cool for 24 hours before adding the saved caramel and crushed Skor bar. This is one cheesecake that you need to leave in the fridge until just before serving; it cuts easier this way. It is indeed very rich so small servings will suffice - especially after a turkey dinner! Thanks for the recipe Nancy and to all the reviewers for great suggestions.

This really good, but very rich!!! I used low fat crm cheese and splenda in place of sugar. I used chocolate crumbs for crust, I mixed the toffee into the cheese batter instead of sprinkling on top of caramel. I used half the caramel on top of crust and used other half to pour over top after it baked. Sprinkled toffee chunks on top of that. Looked great! Also on baking I did as others suggested. I baked per instructions (including the water bath), then turned off oven and let cake sit another hour in oven. It was PERFECT! Let sit in fridge about 24 hours and it cuts nicely! EVERYONE LOVED this and no one could tell I cut some calorie corners!

The bottom layer was too thick & gooy because of the carmels. It was difficult to cut.

This cheesecake has a 3/4" thick layer of chocolate-caramel on the bottom, so nobody will be able to accuse you of skimping on the good stuff. It was the first cheesecake I've ever made, and my husband said it was the best he'd ever eaten! Now, that's one good recipe!

Holy , this was soooo good. I used the recommended changes (mixed toffee into the cheesecake batter, used crushed oreos for the crust, and baked for two hours) and truly this may be the best thing I've ever eaten. I may try a different candy bar next time- perhaps butterfinger to try and mimick the Cheesecake Factory's Adam's PB Cup variety.

Thanks to all the helpful hints the cheesecake was met with rave reviews and many requests. I used 3 cups of vanilla wafer crumbs and 9 tablespoons of butter, and used 9 total toffee bars - 3 sprinkled over the chocolate, 3 in the cheesecake and 3 on top. Very rich but that didn't stop my friends from cleaning the plate. The instant read thermometer allows you to get the consistency just right.

I left off the topping part and still got rave reviews, well worth all the trouble. I made mini (6 inch/cakes) and gave as gifts, have had no less than 9 people ask for recipe. Thanks Nancy...

I made this for my brother's birthday and everyone loved it. I did bake it longer than the hour based on reading some of the reviews on here and it came out great.
