Method
  1. Grease a 22cm springboard pan and line with baking paper.

  3. Preheat the oven to 150°C. Melt the chocolate and set aside. Place the cream cheese, caster sugar, eggs, sour cream and Baileys in a food processor and combine. Mix in the chocolate.
  4. Pour the mixture over the cooled base in the pan. Drizzle the caramel over. Use a skewer to swirl the caramel around. Bake for 1 hour.

NOTES

* You can use any sort of biscuits that you like, but scotch fingers are my favourites. Digestives work well too.

This richly indulgent cheesecake requires you to have patience. Leaving the cheesecake in the oven until it cools prevents the top from cracking. Chilling it in the fridge overnight is essential to maintain good consistency of the cheesecake filling.
