CARAMEL SWIRL CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Crust:
• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Place the walnuts in a cake or pie pan and toast for 12 minutes, stirring the pan after 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
• Spray the inside of the springform pan with nonstick baking spray. Wrap heavy-duty aluminum foil tightly around the bottom of the pan to prevent water from seeping in as it bakes in a water bath.
• Pulse the walnuts and brown sugar in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade until the walnuts are finely ground, about 1 minute. Pour the butter through the feed tube and pulse until the mixture begins to hold together in moist clumps. Transfer the mixture to the springform pan and press the crust evenly onto the bottom.
• Cheesecake:
• Beat the cream cheese in the bowl of an electric stand mixer using the flat beater attachment, or in a large bowl using a hand-held mixer, until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugars and beat together well. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla then add the sour cream and blend completely.
• Pour 1/ 2 of batter into the prepared pan. Then pour 1/ 2 of the caramel sauce over the batter. Use the tip of a knife or a toothpick to swirl together. Repeat once more with the remaining batter and sauce.
• Place the springform pan into a larger cake pan or a roasting pan. Pour boiling water into the bottom pan until it comes halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Bake the cake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the cake puffs and the top is light golden. Remove the pans from the oven and transfer the springform pan to a cooling rack to cool completely. Cover the top of the cheesecake with waxed paper and tightly wrap with aluminum foil then chill for at least 8 hours. Release the clip on the side of the springform pan and gently pull the sides away from the bottom.
• Serve the cheesecake at room temperature.

CARAMEL SWIRLED CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with mixer until smooth. Gently stir in whipped topping (save 1 cup for garnishing). Add 1/4 cup of carmael or butterscotch topping to mixture and mix thoroughly. Spoon mixture evenly into crust. With a knife, make 3 deep "s" shape channels in the cream mixture and fill each channel with carmael or butterscotch topping. With the knife draw 2 more channels in the opposite direction to swirl the filling and create a marble effect.
• Spread reserved whipped topping evenly on top. Decorate with caramel or butterscotch topping. Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
• TIPS: Spread a thin layer of caramel or butterscotch onto the graham crust before spooning the rest of the filling on to the crust.

CARAMEL SWIRL APPLE CHEESECAKE (CROCK-POT)

Steps:

• Prepare pan:.
• Grease a 7 or 8 inch spring-form pan with Pam or butter. Cut wax paper to cover bottom and butter it. Make sure the pan fits in your crock-pot. I was able to use an 8 inch spring form in mine. It does not rest on the bottom of the crock-pot but rests on the top edge. Which is a good thing! Or crumble up foil making a ring with it then placing it in the crock pot so the pan rests and stays lifted off the bottom of the crock.
• Crust:.
• Mix all the ingredients for the crust.
• Place in the prepared spring-form pan, using an oiled plastic wrap over the crust press down to form a crust around the bottom and just over the seam of the pan. A nice trick for spreading the crust with ease and no sticking to hands. Discard wrap.
• Topping:.
• In a large pan over high heat add topping ingredients. Bring to a boil and then simmer till reduced about 7 minutes. Set aside keeping in pan.
• Filling:.
• Beat cream cheese and sugar till completely smooth with no lumps. Must be smooth at this point.
• Add remaining ingredients just to mix in do not over beat at this point.
• Pour filling into crust.
• Drizzle the caramel over the filling and swirl lightly throughout.
• Place apple slices in a spoke pattern over filling.
• Reserving the goodness in the pan for deglazing later.
• Pour into the crock pot with foil 1-2 cups hot water. Then place the cheesecake on the foil out of the water.
• Cook on high for 2 1/2 hours. Unplug pot and then rest for 1-2 hours.
• De glaze pan:.
• Deglaze the pan with the cider loosening any of the cinnamon and sugar that remains adding the nuts if using to coat. Reduce to half and set aside till cake has rested 1-2 hours.
• Spread glaze over apples with a pastry brush. Chill before serving.

Stir together with a fork until well blended and all the dry ingredients are moistened. Press 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner. (you can use a small drinking glass to easily and evenly press the crumbs down) Bake until just set, 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack.

• To assemble, spoon 3 tablespoons of the cheesecake batter over the crust in each cupcake liner. Dot a ½ teaspoon of the raspberry puree in a few dots over the cheesecake filling. Use a toothpick or a wooden skewer to lightly swirl and create a marbled effect.
• Bake until the filling is set, about 22 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. (They will look quite puffed initially but will return to normal quickly.)
