Caramel Swirl CheesecakeAlexandra Defurio

This cheesecake has Classic Caramel Sauce swirled into it, which makes it flavor-rich as well as visually exciting. The crust, made with toasted walnuts, provides a perfect balance of both flavor and texture. Because the cake needs time to cool and chill, I recommend making it at least a day in advance of when you plan to serve it.

Note: Store the cake tightly wrapped in aluminum foil up to 4 days in the refrigerator. To freeze for up to 4 moths, wrap the cake tightly in several layers of plastic wrap and foil. If frozen, defrost overnight in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before serving.
