Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling:

• 2 cups cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• ½ cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy cream

For the Walnut Topping:

• 1 cup walnuts, chopped
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
2. Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, honey, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy and well incorporated.
3. Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour the filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
5. Prepare the Walnut Topping: In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add chopped walnuts and brown sugar, stirring frequently until the walnuts are toasted and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
6. Serve: Once the cheesecake is fully set, top it with the caramelized walnuts. Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice into wedges, and serve chilled.
