# What You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 1 1/2 cups cinnamon graham cracker crumbs
02 - 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

→ Cream Cheese Layer

04 - 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
05 - 3/4 cup powdered sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
07 - 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream, divided

→ Butterscotch Layer

08 - 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant butterscotch pudding mix
09 - 2 cups cold whole milk (for pudding preparation, refer to steps)
10 - 3/4 cup butterscotch chips, roughly chopped and divided

→ Top Layer and Garnish

11 - 8 ounces whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
12 - Additional butterscotch chips, for garnish
13 - Caramel sauce, for garnish

# Step-by-Step Preparation:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine cinnamon graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press mixture evenly into the base of a 9x13 inch baking dish or into single-serve cups to form a compact crust.
02 - In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Blend in vanilla extract until incorporated.
03 - In another bowl, whip 1 cup heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture with a spatula until smooth and fully incorporated.
04 - In a clean bowl, whisk instant butterscotch pudding mix with 2 cups cold milk according to package instructions. Whisk until thickened. Fold in half of the chopped butterscotch chips.
05 - Spread half the cream cheese mixture evenly over the prepared crust. Spoon half the butterscotch pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer. Repeat with the remaining cream cheese and pudding mixtures to create distinct layers.
06 - Spread the whipped topping evenly over the dessert. Sprinkle the remaining chopped butterscotch chips on top and drizzle with caramel sauce to finish.
07 - Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours, or overnight, to allow the dessert to set. Serve chilled and enjoy.

# Additional Tips:

01 - For clean, defined layers, use a spatula to spread each layer evenly and allow chilling time between layers if possible.
02 - Softening cream cheese to room temperature before mixing ensures a silky, lump-free filling.
03 - Fresh bananas or strawberries may be added between layers for a fruity variation.
