Ahhh cheesecake, my all-time favourite dessert! Add some butterscotch flavour and you have pure dessert heaven.
This cheesecake has a rich butterscotch base, smooth, creamy cheesecake filling and topped with some butterscotch crunch. It’s super rich so one piece is more than enough. Unless, of course, your sweet tooth demands more!
I may have eaten most of it myself. Guilty! I just couldn’t resist knowing it was in the fridge taunting me. Serve for dessert or a midday snack with some coffee or tea.
You’ll love how easy it is to make, too! This recipe is one you’ll want to keep on hand whenever you want to serve a deliciously simple dessert.

Noooooo Stacie, how can you do this to me. I have all this healthy food packed for lunch and all I can think about is your butterscotch cheese cake. That’s so wrong, but it looks so incredibly delicious

I made these and they were awesome. My boys and hubby loved them! Only issue I noticed was that the crumble on top pretty much baked into the cheesecake and didn’t look like your picture 🙁 Did I do something wrong or would you wait to add the crumble until after it has baked? Also wondering what size pan you used? I used a 9×13 and they were super thin. Yikes I must have really messed it up. Help!?
Stacie says
I’m glad your family liked them! It’s fine that your crumble baked into. Parts of mine did too. I used 9×13 pan. If you wanted to make them thicker if you make them again, use a smaller pan and adjust the bake time. They aren’t supposed to be super thick.
