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!

Holy Moly. I am absolutely mesmerized by those photos. And I love your Magazine Mondays!

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?
Jennifer
Oh, wow! Must… make… this….
Hendria

Peter
This should become the 8th deadly sin and I luv it!
Claire
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.
Orchidea

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.
Kevin
W.O.W.

Hi Ivonne,
your cheesecakes look delicious. That oozing caramel layer, hmmmm…
x fanny
Janice
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.
Rosa
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
Toffeeapple
Forget the cheesecake, just eat that caramel…
Rachael
Huminah, Huminah! Oh baby!
YUM!
Kieran
God help us! I’m drooling on the keyboard!
Patricia Scarpin
Oh, my! Ivonne, where is my spoon???
laura
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!!!!
Lisa
Holy crap.

Lisa
Oh, my thighs just called.. they asked me to pass this along to you:

Annemarie
Drooling and weeping, weeping and drooling. In my best Homer Simpson voice: UUuuhhhhhh – sweet, sweet caramel.
Claire
I usually try and be articulate, if not funny here. But I have only one word:
droooooooooooooool.
Katie
The photos…the words…
That’s just mean….
SimplePleasures
OH WOW! They look absolutely sinful!!!! to die for!
Love reading you magazine mondays
peabody
That is like the most perfect food for me…caramel and cheesecake…YUM!
Janice Cusano
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.
Sara no H.
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?
Helen
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!
breadchick
Now that just looks amazing and I don’t even really care for caramel!!!
Caffienated Cowgirl
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!
Cielo
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..
Cielo
AmyD
Oh my stars! Yet another reason I need to buy ramekins!
Abby
Wow! I’m not normally much of a cheesecake fan, but with all that delicious looking caramel, I’d have no trouble digging in.
Graeme
Oh my God!
My salivary glands have burst! That caramel overflow picture is so sexy!
Coco
Looks so delicious!
Ann
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?
ABowlOfMush
