Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Place a 9-inch springform pan on a baking sheet and set aside.

- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated into the mixture.
- Mix in the bourbon and 1/2 cup caramel sauce until fully combined.
- Pour the filling over the crust and smooth out the top with a spatula.
- Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the center is almost set.
- Remove from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen the cheesecake from the sides of the pan.
- Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the sour cream and chilled brewed coffee together until well combined.
- Pour the sour cream mixture over the top of the chilled cheesecake and spread it out evenly.
- Drizzle the remaining 1/2 cup of caramel sauce over the top of the sour cream layer.
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
