This gluten-free Salted Peanut Chocolate Cheesecake combines a rich, salted peanut crust, gooey salted caramel, and a smooth, velvety chocolate cheesecake layer, delivering the ultimate sweet and salty experience.

Despite the incredible flavors, this recipe is delightfully simple. The salted peanut crust, made with whipped meringue and salted peanuts, is a perfect balance of salt and sweetness, adding a deliciously gooey base. Layered atop this is a classic salted caramel, crafted the old-fashioned way with butter, cream, sugar, and vanilla—rich and indulgent.

To finish, the cheesecake is crowned with a luxurious chocolate layer made from high-quality chocolate, enhanced with salted butter for that ideal balance to the sweetness, creating an irresistibly smooth and creamy texture.

This cheesecake is a dream come true for chocolate and peanut lovers alike. I hope it becomes one of your favorites too!
