Ingredients:
2 packages (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup salted caramel sauce
About 48 Ritz crackers (1.5 sleeves)
Steps to achieve the sweetness:
Blend to perfection: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth.
Layer with Love: Start with a layer of Ritz crackers in a greased 8×8 baking dish. Follow with layers of cream cheese mixture and a drizzle of caramel sauce. Repeat these layers two more times, using all ingredients.
Cool and set: Wrap the dish in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, or optimally, overnight, allowing the cookies to soften and the flavors to intertwine.
Garnish and serve: Garnish with additional caramel, whipped cream, or crumbled Ritz crackers, cutting into this fresh, sweet, and salty treat when ready to serve.
