The name is long and sounds complicated, but it's really not. This cheesecake is one of the best, most decadent I have ever tried!

Ingredients:

1 (14 oz.) pkg. caramels
graham cracker crust
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
1 (5 oz.) can evaporated milk
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
pecan halves

Directions:

Unwrap caramels; combine caramels and milk in heavy saucepan: cook over low heat until melted, stirring often. Pour over graham cracker crust; sprinkle with pecans evenly over caramel layer, and set aside.

Beat cream cheese at high speed with an electric mixer until light and fluffy; gradually add sugar, mixing well. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla and chocolate; beat until blended. spoon over pecan layer.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and run knife around edge of pan to release sides. Let cool to room temperature on wire rack; cover and chill at least 8 hours.
