No-Bake Turtle Mini Cheesecakes

Ingredients:

• 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup caramel sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare the cheesecake filling:

2. Fill the crusts:
   • Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly into the mini graham cracker crusts, smoothing the tops with a spatula.
   • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the cheesecakes to set.
3. Prepare the toppings:
   • Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
   • Drizzle caramel sauce over each cheesecake and sprinkle with chopped pecans.
   • Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of each cheesecake.
4. Serve:
   • Refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy these decadent treats chilled.
