Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9-inch springform pan with baker’s spray and line with parchment paper. Wrap the outside of the springform pan with two layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Combine chocolate cookie crumbs, melted butter, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir until mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of the prepared springform pan.
- Bake crust for 10 minutes, then remove and cool at room temperature.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla and eggs, one at a time, mixing well. Mix in sour cream and heavy cream until smooth.
- Pour batter into crust and place the springform pan into a large roasting pan. Pour boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the springform. Bake for 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes.
- Turn off oven, open door slightly, and let cheesecake cool slowly for 1 hour. Then chill in refrigerator for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Samoa Cookie Topping
- Toast shredded coconut in a skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Cool slightly.
- Mix toasted coconut with salted caramel sauce until well combined.
- Spread dollops of coconut mixture over the chilled cheesecake. Drizzle with additional caramel and chocolate sauces. Garnish with cookies.
