Chocolate Snickers cheesecake cake is WOW! I made this cake for my husband’s birthday, and it was amazing. He loves Snickers, and since my daughter got a huge thing of Snickers for Christmas, I decided to use a few of them up.
My husband’s favorite candy bar is Snickers and I love cheesecake, and so here you have it. I decided to combine the two of them, and this is what we ended up with. One amazing chocolate Snickers cheesecake cake.
I think that I would even order it if I was eating out! It was really that good. Chocolate Snickers cheesecake cake is one of those amazing desserts that you get once in awhile when you go out and eat. Yep, it really is that good. One thing for sure is that it might just have a few calories!
What is a Snickers?
- In 1930, Mars introducedSnickers,namedafter the favorite horse of the Mars family.
- TheSnickerschocolate bar consists of nougat, peanuts, and caramel with a chocolate coating.
Okay, I must admit that I lied today. I had one of those people keep calling me about my computer and telling me that my computer is having a lot of viruses, and that I had better get it taken care of. And so I told him that I knew why!
I told him that I got sick and tired of my computer so I got rid of it. So, he told me that he was sorry to bother me and then he hung up. I wish that I could say maybe I will never get another phone call about my computer, but I am pretty sure that would be a miracle.

How Do I Make Chocolate Snickers Cheesecake Cake?

- Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Clean the sides of the bowl again and mix on high for 2-3 minutes.
- Grease and flour two 9″ round pans.
- Bake cakes @ 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until the cake tester comes out clean.

- In a mixing bowl, mix the cream cheese.
- Add the sugar and the eggs, and beat until they are nice and smooth.
- Chop the 3 large Snickers bars into small pieces and fold into the mixture.
- Lightly grease a 8″ spring form pan and then line the bottom with parchment paper.
- I cut a circle that fits the bottom of the pan.
- Place the cheesecake mixture into the pan, and cook @ 325 degrees for 45-55 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Remove the cheesecake and allow it to cool for 1 hour or more.

- Then I make the cakes.
- After both the cakes and the cheesecakes have cooled, place one cake on a large plate, and then place the cheesecake on top of the cake, then add the other cake on top of the cheesecake.
- My spring form pan is larger than my cake pans so I just trim the cheesecake down to size.
- Frost using any frosting you like.
- Add additional snickers for garnishing.
Could I Substitute a Different Candy Bar for Snickers?
- Yes, you could substitute almost any candy bar that you wanted for the Snickers Candy Bar.
- The texture of the cheesecake will probably be different depending on the candy bar that you use.
- For example the texture will be smooth for a candy bar without nuts.
What do you do when you have those type of people calling you? I know that he called 4 times in the same day. I am pretty sure if I gave him a slice of Chocolate Snickers cheesecake cake that he would not bother me anymore. He sounded like he lived in another country as I had a hard time understanding him.
I do not like to tell lies, but I do get rather tired of dishonest people calling me, and telling me that they can see that my computer has problems. If that is the case, I will take it to the guy up the street and have him fix it.
I am never going to give my bank info or credit card information over the phone, and I hope that you never do either. I know that people work hard for their money and I do not want dishonest people taking it from them.
What is a Cheesecake?
- The main, and thickest layer, consists of a mixture of soft, fresh cheese (typically cream cheese), eggs, and sugar.
- In this recipe, Snickers are added to the cheesecake.
As you can see in the picture above, I needed to take one more picture. My son came out a couple of hours after dinner and asked me if he could eat another slice of cake. I told him no! I need to take another picture.
So we put a note on this slice of cake so that I could take a picture when the lighting was better. Then my son that just got a new baby that we were on our way to see, sent me a text that read “You better bring some cake”!
So I put a piece on a plate and took it with me to the hospital. When we got ready to come home after seeing our beautiful granddaughter, I saw the cake. So my sweet husband took it back inside so that they could eat their cake.
What is a Cheesecake Cake?
- A Cheesecake Cake is a multilayer cake where at least one layer is a cake and at least one layer is a cheesecake.
So now the next question is what kind of cake am I going to make for my birthday in a few weeks. I really love Reese’s peanut butter cups. But then again, I really like all kinds of cake, and I am just not that picky.
Maybe I will have my family surprise me. That would be a great idea. I like chocolate, but I think that I enjoy vanilla just a little bit better. Raspberry would be really good too. What kind of cake do you all think that I would enjoy?
Well here are some of the ideas that I have that I would suggest for making this delicious chocolate snickers cheesecake cake.
Tips and Tricks For Chocolate Snickers Cheesecake Cake:
- I trimmed the cheesecake part of this cake because it was bigger than the cakes, by taking a sharp knife, and cutting it the same size as the pan.
- Make sure that the cheesecake part of the cake is cooled completely. I placed it in the fridge as this makes it set up pretty firm.
- Store the remaining cake in the refrigerator, but it was our favorite the first day it was made. My husband even warmed it up after we had put it in the fridge.
