For this third edition of Magazine Mondays, I bring you what is quite possibly one of the most sinfully delicious things I have ever made.
Why I waited so long to try this recipe from the October 2004 issue of Food & Wine magazine is beyond me.
Beyond me.
Cream cheese. Caramel. And a hint of salt.
Dip your spoon through the caramel, sink into the cream cheese and taste the salty sweetness of it. And all the while, you watch as caramel oozes into the indentation you created with your spoon.
Don’t faint. Don’t wait. Just go and make this.
Oh yeah … and have a great week!
Ciao!

these look sinfully delicious. i love your new ’series’ on mondays
11/5/07 at 6:54 am
Holy Moly. I am absolutely mesmerized by those photos. And I love your Magazine Mondays!
11/5/07 at 6:57 am
Zowie, looks fabbo. I see the recipe calls for fleur de sel, which I gather is a posh kind of salt. Would a more plebian sea salt work okay, do you think?
11/5/07 at 7:02 am
Oh, wow! Must… make… this….
11/5/07 at 7:38 am
Love your Magazine Mondays. Good way to make one try the things you see. This looks amazing. The photos are perfect.
I will have to put this on my long list of to trys….:)
11/5/07 at 7:52 am
ooh the caramel dripping has got me drooling …:P its looks divine !
11/5/07 at 8:00 am
These look wonderful! Oh great, now I get to add your magazine recipes to the list of my magazine recipes that I want to try!
11/5/07 at 8:15 am
I have cream cheese in the fridge, I may have to try this…soon!
11/5/07 at 9:11 am
This does look sinfully delicious!! It has everything in it that I love!!
11/5/07 at 9:38 am
OMG!
Big kisses Ivonne - I needed this recipe!
11/5/07 at 9:53 am
Omg, I almost *did* faint just reading your description. Must. Make. This. Sooooon.
11/5/07 at 10:09 am
Oh, gosh.
I think I remember flagging this recipe and then never getting around to making it.
What a fantastic treat!
11/5/07 at 10:15 am
Small but DEADLY!!! No wonder you kept that magazine!
11/5/07 at 10:23 am
Oh great. Now my pants really aren’t going to fit looking at this sinful dessert.
11/5/07 at 11:57 am
Oh goodness, just looking at it makes my mouth water!
11/5/07 at 12:15 pm
Caramel drizzled over cream puff. Now that’s tasty
11/5/07 at 1:13 pm
oh sweet! What a nice way to kick start the week
11/5/07 at 1:32 pm
This should become the 8th deadly sin and I luv it!
11/5/07 at 1:46 pm
I think Magazine Mondays are more likely adding to my list of untried recipes. However, if this is half as good as it looks, I can forgive you.
11/5/07 at 1:47 pm
Oh mamma… questi creme caramel sono stupendi!!!
Buonissimi.
Ciao.
11/5/07 at 1:56 pm
Caramel is the best! Will have to try this one!
11/5/07 at 2:25 pm
So delectable, Ivonne! I love how the caramel is overflowing!
11/5/07 at 2:59 pm
Salted Caramel Cheesecake? Sounds devilishly-decadent! yikes! haha.
Oh how I love your Magazine Monday posts, Ivonne - as do I love all your posts!! yay!!
11/5/07 at 3:51 pm
Wow. I stopped dead in my tracks over that picture, Cream Puff
11/5/07 at 4:06 pm
Good lord that looks fantastic. Almost like a cheesecake creme brulee! Mmmmm….
11/5/07 at 5:20 pm
That sounds absolutely incredible! Thanks for the link.
11/5/07 at 5:23 pm
oh my GAHD Ivonne. This looks like I would take a bite and cry from the sheer wonderfulness of it all.
Thank you. You just made my day. I know whats for dessert tonight.
11/5/07 at 6:18 pm
And I’m so needing sweet and salty this week.
11/5/07 at 6:33 pm
Ivonne, these look heavenly. I wanted to lick the caramel from my computer screen.
11/5/07 at 6:50 pm
Oh! Wow!
Paz
11/5/07 at 7:19 pm
That looks so good!!
11/5/07 at 7:20 pm
Now that’s evil…and oh so good, I want an interactive screen! Oh did I need!!!
11/5/07 at 7:24 pm
SHUT UP.
I can’t even -
I don’t even know what to say.
Wow. WOW.
11/5/07 at 7:37 pm
You’re killing me…..s.l.o.w.l.y
11/5/07 at 7:50 pm
Are you for real? That looks and sounds absolutely INCREDIBLE. I am so ready for dessert now!!!
11/5/07 at 7:59 pm
My goodness — I’m salivating!
11/5/07 at 8:32 pm
I couldn’t understand some parts of this article nnial 2007 - salvatore iaconesi - del.icio.us poetry, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
11/5/07 at 8:35 pm
W.O.W.
11/5/07 at 10:53 pm
Hi Ivonne,
your cheesecakes look delicious. That oozing caramel layer, hmmmm…
x fanny
11/6/07 at 3:09 am
You are sooooo BAD! But, remember what Mae West said — “When I’m good, I’m really, really good. But when I’m bad, I’m better.” I’m on my way to the grocery store to be bad.
11/6/07 at 3:29 am
I am already weeping although I haven’t tasted them yet ;-P! A few weeks ago, I ate a very similar dessert (from Gourmet) and it was amazing…
Cheers,
Rosa
11/6/07 at 6:13 am
Forget the cheesecake, just eat that caramel…
11/6/07 at 7:38 am
Huminah, Huminah! Oh baby!
YUM!
11/6/07 at 8:58 am
God help us! I’m drooling on the keyboard!
11/6/07 at 9:51 am
Oh, my! Ivonne, where is my spoon???
11/6/07 at 11:34 am
Seriously. This is the best dessert I have seen in a long long time. It looks unbelievably good. I may make it even though I vowed not to bake until Thanksgiving…I know, but I just can’t control myself once I start!!!!
11/6/07 at 12:41 pm
Holy crap.
xoxo
11/6/07 at 12:42 pm
Oh, my thighs just called.. they asked me to pass this along to you:
xoxo
11/6/07 at 12:50 pm
Drooling and weeping, weeping and drooling. In my best Homer Simpson voice: UUuuhhhhhh - sweet, sweet caramel.
11/6/07 at 1:11 pm
I usually try and be articulate, if not funny here. But I have only one word:
droooooooooooooool.
11/6/07 at 1:38 pm
The photos…the words…
That’s just mean….
11/6/07 at 6:47 pm
OH WOW! They look absolutely sinful!!!! to die for!
Love reading you magazine mondays
11/6/07 at 7:59 pm
That is like the most perfect food for me…caramel and cheesecake…YUM!
11/6/07 at 8:32 pm
There’s only one thing better than a sweet treat, and that’s a salty sweet treat! This one screams unabashedly sexy good. Will try on my next romantic adventure (aka date) and post the results, but of course.
11/7/07 at 9:53 pm
Those look amazing! I have a question though — do you think it’d be possible to just not use sour cream, or to at least lessen the amount? I really don’t like it in my cheesecake, but I’m not sure how it’ll affect the baking time/consistency/etc. Any suggestions?
11/8/07 at 5:34 am
This looks delicious. I would have said that probably no-ones arteries could survive this dessert but you have put yourself on the line here for the rest of us and well, if you have survived it then so can I! I am thinking of using your ‘magazine Monday’s strategy myself as I have the same problem that you do. Great idea!
11/8/07 at 12:01 pm
Now that just looks amazing and I don’t even really care for caramel!!!
11/8/07 at 1:27 pm
This is just too funny…
I was cleaning out a box of old magazines that have been moved twice (but never even peeked at) and ran across that particular issue of Food and Wine…AND I even tore that recipe out to try later! Thanks for giving it a test run!
11/8/07 at 1:46 pm
I don’t have anything to discuss about this ariticle; like your postage say… I just wanna say: Oh my gosh…… everthing looks amazingly delicious……
Thanks for sharing your secret to expectacular desserts..

11/8/07 at 2:37 pm
Oh my stars! Yet another reason I need to buy ramekins!
11/9/07 at 4:50 am
Wow! I’m not normally much of a cheesecake fan, but with all that delicious looking caramel, I’d have no trouble digging in.
11/10/07 at 10:03 am
Oh my God!
My salivary glands have burst! That caramel overflow picture is so sexy!
11/10/07 at 8:25 pm
Looks so delicious!
11/26/07 at 6:19 am
I tried these last week…..Delicious! Thank you for sharing the recipe with us. The caramel is simply addictive. My new most favorite thing.

Hi! I made these delicious little devils last night but they cam out a bit soft and when it wasn’t cooled it was soupy like. I followed the directions to a T. Was it undercooked? Any suggestions?
07/29/09 at 8:03 am
I love anything with salted caramel! I just made salted caramel custard pots and now I want this! Its looks delicious!
