For an almost instant dessert, I spread homemade ganache and caramel sauce over pre-made cheesecake. It makes the holidays feel slightly less hectic. Ingredients:
1 frozen new york-style cheesecake (30 ounces), thawed |
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, divided |
3 tablespoons chopped pecans, toasted |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar |
1 tablespoon light corn syrup |
Directions:
1. Place cheesecake on a serving plate. Place chocolate chips in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring 1/4 cup cream just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; stir with a whisk until smooth. Cool slightly, stirring occasionally. Pour over cheesecake; sprinkle with pecans. Refrigerate until set.
2. In a small saucepan, melt butter; stir in brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Stir in remaining cream and return to a boil. Remove from heat. Serve warm with cheesecake or, if desired, cool completely and drizzle over cheesecake. Yield: 8 servings.
