- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 200 g Milk Chocolate ((chopped))
- 300 ml Double Cream

Instructions
- 1
Melt the butter in the microwave on short bursts on in a small pan over a medium heat.
- 2
Blitz the biscuits, cocoa powder, and peanuts in a food processor to a small crumb, add the melted butter, and pulse a few times until it is combined well.
- 3
Tip into a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin and press down firmly – chill in the refrigerator whilst you do the rest!
- 4
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring gently or microwave in short bursts until fully melted – leave to cool slightly whilst doing the rest.
- 5
With an electric mixer (I used my KitchenAid) Whisk the Cream Cheese and Icing sugar, Carnations Caramel, and Vanilla until smooth – Whilst mixing, pour in the melted chocolate and whip again until smooth.
- 6
Pour in the liquid double cream and continue to whip the mixture until it is starting to thicken a lot like a Mousse does (I use speed 6/10 on my KitchenAid) It won’t take too long as the chocolate will harden quickly and cause it to thicken.
- 7
Fold through the chopped Snickers bits through the mixture – Pour the mix on to the biscuit base, smooth over, cover, and chill in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours hours or preferably overnight.
- 8
Remove the cheesecake from the tin carefully. I whip together my double cream and icing sugar till thick and pipeable.
- 9
Drizzle over the caramel, and pipe the whipped cream on using a 2D Closed Star Piping Tip. Sprinkle on some chopped peanuts, and add a piece of Snickers to each Cream swirl!
