  • Total Time: 8 hours 25 minutes
  • Yield: 10 to 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

24 ounces full-fat cream cheese, softened

1 ½ cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon juice

⅛ teaspoon salt

1 cup cold heavy whipping cream

3 regular-sized chocolate candy bars, coarsely chopped

1 regular-sized chocolate candy bar, coarsely chopped

½ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

1-First Steps: Making the Crust: Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until every crumb is coated, then press it firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. For more tips on achieving a sturdy crust, check out this perfect graham cracker crust guide for additional inspiration. Freeze the crust while you move on to the filling to help it set quickly.

2-Preparing the Filling: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then add the sifted confectioners’ sugar and mix until fully combined. Next, incorporate the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and salt for a balanced flavor. Gradually add the cold heavy whipping cream, beating on high speed until thick and stiff, which takes about 3 to 4 minutes to ensure the filling holds its shape.

Gently fold in the coarsely chopped chocolate candy bars to distribute the flavors evenly. This step is crucial for that signature Snickers-inspired taste. Transitioning smoothly, spread the filling over the chilled crust and refrigerate for at least 8 hours to let it firm up.

3-Finishing Touches: Before serving, remove the pan sides and add the topping by sprinkling the chopped chocolate candy bar and drizzling the caramel sauce. This not only enhances the presentation but also adds an extra layer of indulgence. For a deeper dive into no-bake desserts, visit this classic no-bake cheesecake recipe for more ideas.

❄️ Refrigerate chocolate candy bars before chopping to keep caramel from sticking to the knife.
