  4. Add the eggs one at a time to the mixture on low speed, mixing until just combined.
Baking
  1. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and spread it out evenly.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is slightly jiggly but not liquid.
  3. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about an hour.
Finishing Touches
  1. Once cooled, drizzle warm caramel sauce over the cheesecake and swirl in some extra cookie butter.
  2. Chill the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Serving
  1. Cut the cheesecake into squares and serve with extra caramel and whipped cream if desired.

Notes

If the crust crumbles, add more melted butter. For a richer filling, consider adding a splash of heavy cream. A no-bake alternative is also available with slight adjustments.
