Ingredients
  

Crust:

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

¼ cup granulated sugar

Filling:

16 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream (chilled)

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (melted and cooled)

1 cup shredded coconut

½ cup chopped pecans (toasted)

Topping:

½ cup caramel sauce

¼ cup pecans (chopped, for garnish)

Chocolate shavings or additional shredded coconut (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs resemble wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan evenly. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.

    Make the filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue to mix until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and melted chocolate, and mix until well combined.

      Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate it.

        Add the toppings: Fold in the shredded coconut and toasted pecans until evenly distributed.

          Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set properly.

            Serve: Before serving, drizzle the cheesecake with caramel sauce and sprinkle with chopped pecans and optional chocolate shavings or additional coconut. Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan, slice, and enjoy!
