5 Layer Turtle Lasagna

by

5-Layer Turtle Lasagna is a sumptuous and indulgent dessert that combines the flavors of traditional turtle candies with the comforting appeal of a classic lasagna.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This dessert is a decadent twist on the traditional Italian dish, featuring layers of chocolate, caramel, pecans, and creamy filling. Here’s a detailed description of how to make it:

 

 

 

 

 

 

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

The first layer of the Turtle Lasagna consists of a buttery graham cracker crust. Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs and mix them with melted butter and sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a firm and even crust.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next, prepare the creamy cheesecake layer. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, then add sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined and creamy. Spread this mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For the third layer, sprinkle chopped pecans evenly over the cheesecake layer. Pecans add a crunchy texture and nutty flavor that complement the other layers perfectly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fourth layer consists of caramel sauce. Drizzle caramel sauce over the pecans, creating a rich and sweet layer that adds depth of flavor to the dessert.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, sprinkle chocolate chips over the caramel sauce. Chocolate chips will melt and create a luscious chocolate layer that ties all the flavors together.

 

 

 

 

 

Bake the Turtle Lasagna in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully chilled and set.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once chilled, slice the Turtle Lasagna into squares and serve. Each bite is a delightful combination of creamy cheesecake, crunchy pecans, gooey caramel, and rich chocolate, making it a truly indulgent and unforgettable dessert experience.
