Chocolate Caramel Cheesecake image

This recipe proves that you can bake terrific tasting cheesecakes with less fat. I call it the "Skinny Turtle" because layers of caramel and nuts top the graham cracker crust, complementing the chocolate cheesecake. -Tamara Trouten of Fort Wayne, Indiana

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped. The crust was too dry, and the cheesecake itself was a bit grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cheesecake was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll try making it with a graham cracker crust instead of a chocolate one.

This cheesecake was easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought chocolate cookie crust, which saved me some time. The caramel sauce was also very easy to make and added a delicious touch.

I'm not a huge fan of cheesecake, but this one was amazing! The caramel sauce was the perfect topping, and the chocolate crust was a nice touch.

This cheesecake was a hit at my dinner party! The chocolate and caramel flavors were perfectly balanced, and the crust was just the right amount of crumbly. I will definitely be making this again.
