Why is caramel only used as a drizzle on cheesecake that's already flavored with something else? My mother is a huge fan of caramel and a hater of chocolate, so I created this variation on regular cheesecake for her birthday.

Time 4h25m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ½ (11 ounce) packages individually wrapped caramels, divided
3 tablespoons water
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
2 (8 inch) prepared graham cracker crusts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Unwrap 1 package of caramels and place them into a large glass bowl; add water. Microwave on high power, stirring once, until caramel sauce is smooth, about 3 minutes. Let cool a bit, about 5 minutes, so it doesn't cook the cheese or eggs when you add them.
  • Add cream cheese and vanilla extract to caramel sauce and beat together using an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, mixing just until blended; do not overblend batter as it will introduce too much air into the cheese mixture and will cause the cake to crack as it bakes.
  • Pour batter evenly between the pie crusts. Melt remaining caramels in a microwaveable bowl in a microwave, in 10-second increments, 30 seconds to 1 minute total. Drizzle on top of pies, dragging a knife across the lines of caramel to marble the cake.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the centers are almost set, about 40 minutes. Let cool, 20 to 30 minutes. Refrigerate at least 3 hours, to overnight if you can.

This cheesecake was a disappointment. The crust was dry and the filling was too dense. I won't be making this recipe again.

I had some trouble with the caramel sauce. It didn't thicken up as much as I thought it would. However, the cheesecake itself was delicious. I'll try again with a different caramel sauce recipe.

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe and the cheesecake turned out well.
