Directions

1 Heat oven to 450°F. Unroll 1 pie crust on work surface. Roll lightly with rolling pin. With 2 1/2- to 2 3/4-inch round cutter, cut 12 rounds from crust. Press rounds in bottoms and up sides of 12 mini muffin cups, with edges extending above cups about 1/8 inch. Repeat with remaining pie crust. Place about 5 of the chocolate chips in each crust.
2 Bake 6 minutes. Leave crusts in pan. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
3 Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat cream cheese, brown sugar, caramel topping and egg with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Spoon evenly over chocolate chips, about 1 1/2 teaspoons for each tartlet.
4 Bake at 375°F 10 to 12 minutes or until cheesecake is set. Cool in pan on cooling rack 10 minutes; remove from pan.
5 In small microwavable bowl, place remaining chocolate chips and the oil. Microwave uncovered on High 30 seconds; stir. Microwave about 30 seconds longer or until melted; stir. Drizzle over each tartlet; immediately sprinkle with pecans. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Cover and refrigerate any remaining tartlets.

If you prefer your chocolate less sweet, use semisweet chocolate chips instead of the milk chocolate.

This recipe is fairly simple to make and is the life of the party! I also found if your running sort on time you can make it as one huge tartlet in a pie pan and it goes over just as well as the mini tartlets!!!

We loved these, especially the fact they're only one or two bites. I would definitely make them again. They were very quick and easy too. You can see some pics of mine at http://www.brendascanadiankitchen.com/2010/10/cookbook-sundays-turtle-cheesecake.html

They were easy enough to make. But, they seemed like they were missing something. Too much crust taste, not enough cheesecake taste.
