‘It’s been so long since I made a cheesecake and I’ve been wanting to make a caramel or Rolo themed one for quite a while!’ Ms Head wrote in the caption.
To make the base, she starts by mixing 350 grams of Digestive biscuits with 180 grams of melted butter, stirring until the two have combined into a buttery crumb.
Ms Head then presses the mixture into the base of an eight inch cake tin which she leaves in the fridge while turning her attention to the filling.
After whisking 350ml of double cream, she takes a separate bowl and mixes 500 grams of softened cream cheese with 120 grams of icing sugar and 120 grams of Carnation caramel, which is sold in leading supermarkets like Coles and Woolworths.

Once mixed, Ms Head spoons the creamy caramel over the cooled biscuit base and leaves it to set in the fridge for at least five hours.
When the cake has set, she loads it with a further 150 grams of Carnation caramel, decorating the edge with about 20 Rolos.
Ms Head said it’s best to keep the cheesecake in the fridge after adding the topping to ensure the caramel fully sets.
‘I found it sliced better after being the the fridge for several hours again,’ she added.
