I only used a few ingredients for this cheesecake recipe. One of the main ingredients is cream cheese. You can make your own cream cheese at home, but I used store-bought cream cheese for the sake of time.

Step 1: Gather all of your necessary ingredients. Cream cheese, eggs, salt, Cream cheese, eggs, salt, butter, sour cream, sugar, pure vanilla extract, heavy cream, cornstarch, caramel (can be homemade or store-bought), walnuts, and honey graham crackers.

Step 2: Use a food processor to crush your honey graham crackers. If you don’t have a food processor, add your graham cracker to a ziplock bag and crush it lightly with a meat tenderizer or hammer.

Step 3: Then add melted butter with a pinch of salt. Make sure everything is mixed together.

Step 4: Add the mixture to the bottom of the pan(I used the 9-inch detachable cheesecake pan).

Step 5: Press the graham crackers down evenly over the bottom of the pan.

Step 6: Bake the graham cracker crust at 350F until lightly brown. So, about 5-10 minutes. The results vary.

Step 7: In a bowl, add softened cream cheese, sugar, sour cream, and heavy whipping cream, then mix.

Step 8: Add cornstarch, eggs, salt, and pure vanilla extract.

Step 9: Take a cake pan strip, wet it, and place it around the 9-inch pan. Then, place the 9-inch cake pan into a bigger pan. Now pour hot water into the pan.

Step 10: Place in oven at 325 Fahrenheit for 1 hour (ensure the oven is preheated). After it has cooked for that hour, turn the oven off and let sit for an hour.

Place in the refrigerator to chill for 3 hours. Then add toppings and enjoy!!
