This Mini Salted Caramel Cheesecake is soft, creamy, delicious and addicting! This is perfect for Thanksgiving and a real treat for salted caramel lovers!

I like cheesecake, but I can only take three bites and  I’m done. I wanted to try to make a salted caramel cheesecake because I have become obsessed with salted caramel, in fact every day for two weeks, I stopped by Starbucks and bought myself a Salted Caramel Frap.   Anyway, I made my own caramel sauce recipe which I used to make this cheesecake which you can find here.

I have made cheesecake many times in a regular sized pan and it turned out great, however making mini cheesecake was a bit of a challenge.  Some of the few challenges were cracking in the middle of the cheesecake, cheesecake sinking in the middle, and the cheesecake falling apart.

I actually wanted to give up, but I told myself it’s worth it!  I realized my first mistake was leaving it in the oven too long, apparently MINI cheesecakes only bake only for 15-20 minutes and that is why it was cracking and sinking in the middle.  The cheesecake falling apart only happened because I didn’t wait for an hour for it to solidify.  I also made a water bath, so that probably helped.  In the end, after many attempts of making the Mini Salted Caramel Cheesecake, the first bite was totally worth it!

I partnered with my friends from YouTube Hani, Cobi, Barbara, and Sav to make a Thanksgiving Dinner.  So if you don’t have a menu for Thanksgiving here are some healthy, but delicious food for you and your family!
