Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and granulated sugar. Use a handheld mixer to blend until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter, then stir in the butterscotch sauce until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and a pinch of sugar, then press into the springform pan.
  5. Pour the butterscotch sauce into the cream cheese mixture and blend. Add vanilla extract and eggs, mixing well.
  6. Pour the filling over the crust and bake for 50-60 minutes or until edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
  7. Let the cheesecake cool at room temperature for an hour, then refrigerate for at least four hours, or overnight.
  8. Remove from the fridge, top with whipped cream and butterscotch bits, slice, and serve.
