Easiest No Bake Salted Caramel Cheesecake

    Graham Cracker Crust

    • In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs,sugar, salt, and melted butter and mix together. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides about an inch of an 8-inch springform pan. Place in refrigerator while you make the cheesecake mixture.

    • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth and then mix in vanilla extract until combined.
    • Add in the heavy cream and continue to beat for a minute or two at medium speed. Transfer the cheesecake filling to the prepared pan, and smooth into an even layer. Refrigerate for 4 hours

    Caramel Sauce & Toppings

    • Add your caramel sauce, sea salt and if you wish some whipped cream swirls.
    • To make whipped cream swirls: Add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla together in a bowl and whip with electric mixer until you get whipped cream for 3-5 minutes. Place mixture in a piping bag with a large star tip and pipe some swirls!
    • Pro Tip:  When slicing into your cheesecake, place a sharp knife under hot water and then wipe it clean and cut into the cheesecake for nice cuts.  Repeat method for each cut.

    • I love the idea of adding some brownie bites on top and drizzling more caramel on top!
