    I made this for work today and I've never seen a cheesecake disappear so fast! I used a pastry brush and swirled the caramel topping on top, it was simply beautiful, then we dived in! BTW, my crust wasnt runny and the toasted pecans were a great addition

    I tried this recipe and I thought the crust was too runny after only 15 minutes of baking. Did anyone else have this problem?

    This does sound fabulous - have you ever tried using dulce de leche (see the recipe on this site by JKStern) in place of the caramels and half-and-half?

    This sound totally delicious. It appears to be similar to a snicker cheesecake that I've had on occasion. Sprinkle chopped nots on top and drizzle with chocolate and you would come close to it! I KNOW that one is fantastic! This will be too!!!! YUMMMMM
