Using 2 long strips of foil, make an "X" over foil ring and bring it up along the sides of crockpot to assist removing pan from crockpot. Place springform pan on top of the ring and the "X" in crockpot. Stack 6 paper towels; place over top the of the crockpot. Secure with lid.
4. Cook on high heat setting for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Do not lift the lid at all.

Add the remaining two eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down sides of the bowl. Add cream and vanilla; beat until combined. Pour over brownie mixture in crockpot.
6. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours more. Turn crockpot to low heat setting. Cook for 1 hour more or until cheesecake is set with a wet-looking center. Turn off heat and let sit, covered, for 30 minutes.

Since I probably use my crockpot more than I use my oven, I thought a blog for tasty and easy crockpot recipes would be great. I simply love my crockpot and am known as the queen of the crockpot. When you work 40 hours a week and have children with a lot of after school activities, the crockpot really simplifies life. So much healthier than fast food too :-). Feel free to share your own favorite crockpot recipes as well. Enjoy!
