Directions
 

For the Cheesecake Crust:

  • Pour on top of the prepared crust.
  • Bake for 35 minutes.
  • Turn off the oven and prop open the door. Allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Remove cheesecake from the oven and transfer to the refrigerator for 2 hours.

To Decorate:

  • Melt the hot fudge topping and spread over the top of the chilled cheesecake. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top.
  • Add marshmallows on top and lightly torch with a kitchen torch.
  • Add Sugar Skull Marshmallows on top.

Notes

Cheat: Buy a store-bought 6-inch cheesecake and decorate.
No Kitchen Torch? Turn the oven on broil and place the cheesecake in a oven-safe dish. Broil until marshmallows are toasted. Watch carefully! Marshmallows can burn in 30 seconds or less.
