How to Make It

1. Step
Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with cooking spray.
2. Step
Make the cookie base: Chop the candy into bite-size pieces, then transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
3. Step
In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the butter and cream with an electric hand mixer until fluffy.
4. Step
Add the egg, vanilla, salt, and baking soda and mix with a rubber spatula to combine.
5. Step
Fold in the flour just until smooth, then add the candy pieces and fold to incorporate.
6. Step
Transfer the dough to the prepared springform pan and pat down in an even layer. Refrigerate until ready to use.
7. Step
Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar. Beat with an electric hand mixer until smooth.
8. Step
Add the salt, vanilla, and eggs and beat to combine.
9. Step
Pour the filling over the chilled base and smooth the top.
10. Step
Bake 35-40 minutes, until the sides are golden but the center still jiggles slightly. Let cool to room temperature.
11. Step
Drizzle chocolate syrup in a spiral pattern over the cheesecake. Using a toothpick, draw lines outward from the center to create a spiderweb pattern.
12. Step
Un-mold the cheesecake, then slice and serve.
13. Step
Enjoy!
