Holiday Inn Brownie Caramel Cheesecake
1 package (9 ounce) brownie mix
1 egg
1 tablespoon cold water
1 package (14 ounce) individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
1 can (5 ounce) evaporated milk
2 packages (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 cup chocolate fudge topping
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
In a small bowl, mix together brownie mix, 1 egg and water. Spread into the
greased pan. Bake for 25 minutes.
Melt the caramels with the evaporated milk over low heat in a heavy saucepan.
Stir often and heat until mixture has a smooth consistency. Reserve 1/3 cup of
this caramel mixture, and pour the remainder over the warm, baked brownie
crust.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with an electric
mixer until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Pour cream cheese mixture over caramel mixture.
Bake cheesecake for 40 minutes. Chill in pan. When cake is thoroughly chilled,
loosen by running a knife around the edge, and then remove the rim of the pan.
Heat reserved caramel mixture, and spoon over cheesecake. Drizzle with the
chocolate topping.
