No Bake Twix Cheesecake

Ingredients:

1 prepared chocolate pie crust

1 jar of Hershey's caramel sauce (located with ice cream toppings)

1 small bag of pecan pieces 

1 box of no bake plain cheesecake (Kroger brand works fine)

1 1/2 cup milk

3 packages of Twix

1. Place a small saucepan filled 2/3 full of water on stove on medium heat for 5 minutes.

2. Turn off heat. Remove lid from caramel sauce and place in water. Let caramel sit for 3-5 minutes or until warm so it is easier to pour.

3. Chop up half of the Twix bars in very thin pieces.

4. Pour a thin layer of caramel in the bottom of the pie crust.

5. Put chopped Twix on top of caramel in bottom of pie crust.

6. Prepare the cheesecake filling from the box as directed. Check box because the amount of milk required may be more or less depending on what brand you use. Typically you pour milk into mixing bowl and then add filing mix. Beat with hand mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes so filling thickens.

7. Pour filling into pie crust on top of caramel and Twix and refrigerate uncovered for one hour.

8. Chop remaining Twix into slightly larger pieces.

9. Remove cheesecake from fridge after one hour. Scatter Twix and nuts on top. Drizzle caramel on top. (The cheesecake pictured below has too much caramel on it. I didn't realize how much I had used until I pulled it out of the freezer so drizzle with caution!) If you need to heat it up in order to be able to pour it, only heat it slightly. You do not want it to be hot or even moderately warm.

10. Place in fridge for 2-3 hours or in the freezer for about 1 hour. The cheesecake needs to cool all the way through before serving.
