Elevate your dessert

If some is good, more is better, right?. Our Turtle Cheesecake is topped with generous amounts of caramel, chocolate chips and pecans, but if you’re someone who wants more, here are some simple recipes for whipping-up caramel and chocolate syrups to drizzle over your cheesecake to take it to a whole new level.

Caramel Sauce
Ingredients:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter , cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- pinch of salt

Directions
1) Add sugar and water to a heavy bottomed saucepan; stir so it sits in a flat, even layer.
2) Warm pot over medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves, turns clear, and starts to bubble. (It will be cloudy at first, but will turn into a clear, bubbling liquid.) This takes about 3-4 minutes. Sugar will form clumps, but continue swirling and cooking until the mixture thickens and turns a deep amber color like honey (this can take anywhere from 8-12 minutes), keeping a watchful eye so the mixture doesn’t burn.
3) Carefully add the butter and whisk until completely melted. (The caramel will bubble up rapidly, so be careful and continue to whisk.)
4) Remove the saucepan from the heat and slowly pour in the cream, whisking continuously until all of the cream has been incorporated.
5) Whisk in the vanilla and salt.
6) Set aside to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

Chocolate Sauce
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

Directions
1) In a cold saucepan, whisk the cocoa and sugar together until the lumps are removed. Add the salt and the water, then bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
2) Reduce to a simmer; stirring constantly. Simmer for ~30 seconds and remove from heat. 3) Let cool and then add the vanilla. Don’t worry if your sauce seems thin. It will thicken as it continues to cool.
4) Drizzle your caramel and chocolate sauces over a slice of your Turtle Cheesecake, and add some crushed pecans if you’re really feeling adventurous!
