• Microwave on high 1 minute or until caramels are completely melted when stirred.
• Add melted caramels to cream cheese batter; stir until well blended.
• The caramel will become kind of stringy through the batter as the caramels cool.
• Pour over crust.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until center is almost set.
• Sprinkle cheesecake with remaining 1/2 cup pecans.
• Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• ****The recipe calls for melting the remaining caramels and 1 Tbsp of water and drizzling over it, but I did this when I made it and found that the caramel immediately cools and becomes very very sticky.
• I think next time I make it, I will use some caramel ice cream topping to drizzle on top instead.
