Ken's Chocolate Turtle Cheesecake

Mix together the ingredients for the crust -- graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar and melted butter -- and press into a 9 inch springform pan going two inches up the side.

Microwave caramels and milk in a heatproof bowl on high until caramels are completely melted, stirring a few times. Stir the chopped pecans into the caramel mixture.

Pour half onto the crust. Set aside the remaining half.

Refrigerate the crust for at least 10 minutes.

In a large bowl beat cream cheese with the 1 1/3 cup of sugar and vanilla with a mixer until well blended.

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended.

Remove the crust from the refrigerator and pour the cream cheese mixture over the caramel and crust.

Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes until the center is almost set.

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Run a knife around the rim of the pan to loosen before removing from the pan. Place on a serving plate.

Microwave reserved caramel mixture and pour over cheesecake. Drizzle melted chocolate over the caramel mixture. Garnish with the pecan halves.

If this cheesecake isn't rich enough, add whipped cream!
