Make It

HEAT oven to 325°F.

FINELY crush 50 wafers; mix with 1/4 cup sugar and margarine. Press onto bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Stand remaining wafers around edge, pressing gently into crust to secure.

BEAT cream cheese and remaining sugar in large bowl with mixer until well blended. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating on low speed after each just until blended. Pour over crust.

BAKE 45 to 50 min. or until center is almost set. Run small knife around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool before removing rim. Refrigerate 4 hours. Microwave caramels and milk on HIGH 1 min. or until caramels are completely melted, stirring every 30 sec. Cool slightly. Pour over cheesecake; top with nuts.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise
Balance your food choices throughout the day so you can enjoy a serving of this rich and indulgent cheesecake with your loved ones.
Substitute
Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Grease foil. Prepare recipe as directed, increasing whole NILLA Wafers around the side from 16 to 22. Bake 40 to 45 min. or until center is almost set. Use foil handles to lift cheesecake from pan before cutting into squares to serve.
Note
If using a dark nonstick springform pan, reduce oven temperature to 300°F.
