This delicious recipe has been generously shared by one of our great cooks, Carina. She's always coming up with great recipes, and here we have Cari's Easy Caramel and Vanilla Cheesecake. It's creamy and nice and fluffy like a baked cheesecake should be!

This Easy Cheesecake is so flexible and perfect if you want to make it ahead of time too.

If you stick to the basic recipe, you can switch the flavors very easily, or if you wanted to make a few different cheesecakes for a party, Thanksgiving or Christmas time, you could triple the recipe to make 3 cheesecakes and simply switch out the caramel for a different flavor such as lemon curd, a strawberry or raspberry preserve, Nutella etc. Whatever you fancy!

Please note, you may have some filling and crust leftover, depending on how deep your pie dish is. I just make some cupcake ones with any leftovers.
