Caramel Mountain Top Cheesecake

Recipe Description

This Caramel Mountain Top Cheesecake gets served at every kids birthday party we have ever celebrated! My children love this recipe and I’m sure it’s all the sugar, sweetness and yumminess that comes with it, which is why I make it only on special occasions. With a biscuit-butter base filled with layers of fresh whipping cream combined with icing sugar and cream cheese, in between dulce de leche, marshmallows and malteser chocolates.

To make Caramel Mountain Top Cheesecake, you will need the following ingredients:
