I’m sure you read that title and blinked twice. I did. Because decadence has a name and it is most certainly cheesecake dipped in chocolate, covered in candy and nuts and served on a stick. This recipe is so delicious and creative that I would love to take credit for it. But in truth I was inspired to create this recipe from a post I saw on @batteranddough’s Instagram account last year.
Close your eyes and think of a thick, creamy, silky-smooth cheesecake. We’re talking doorstop dense, with a buttery shortbread crust. Then, slowly dip in into a pool of warm, milk chocolate and sprinkle it with your favorite topping. (Stop it! I cant! It’s too good!) And for the final flare, put it all on a stick so the only thing that gets messy here is your mouth. It may take a lot of patience and time to make these but think of it this way: your house will smell divine and your friend won’t stop raving about these decadent treats.
I recommend baking the cheesecake a day ahead to allow the cheesecake to completely chill, and then dipping it in chocolate the next day. Just make sure your are alone when you eat the final product, otherwise you know your going to have to share.
