Making my microwave caramel sauce is an alternative choice to this caramel recipe, but it surely will not be as thick.
You could add a layer of caramel sauce earlier than the ganache. In case you do add a caramel layer, it’ll ooze out a bit while you slice this cheesecake. I choose leaving the caramel as a topping as an alternative of a layer, however each methods will likely be scrumptious.
*I’ve used this ganache topping utilizing 12 ounces of chocolate on one other cheesecake efficiently as did my videographer, so it really works for me. I’ve had 2 feedback mentioning that their ganache wasn’t thick sufficient so you could need to add one other 4 ounces of chopped chocolate to make sure it units correctly (4 Ghirardelli bars as an alternative of three).
Be sure that your 9-inch springform pan has an inside depth of at the least 2½-inches so there’s room for all of the batter. In case you do not use the paddle attachment, you will have extra batter since utilizing a whisk to mix will add air to the batter.
Since this cheesecake is tremendous wealthy, it may possibly simply feed greater than 16 particularly if served after a hearty meal.
