After spending years living in Seattle, I've become a coffee junkie! I had to relocate across the country for a time, so I created this cheesecake with the flavors of salted caramel, coffee and espresso. It lifted me up on days when I felt blue about leaving one of the world's amazing coffee destinations. -Julie Merriman, Seattle, Washington

This cheesecake was a disappointment. The crust was too thick and the filling was too dense.

This cheesecake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm a cheesecake connoisseur and this recipe is definitely a winner. The crust is the perfect balance of crunchy and crumbly, and the filling is smooth and creamy. The salted caramel sauce is the perfect finishing touch.

This cheesecake was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was curdled. I'm not sure what went wrong.
