Salted Caramel Cheesecake Oatmeal Cups
Salted Caramel Cheesecake Oatmeal Cups
All my favorites all in one place!
The deliciousness of an oatmeal cookie,
topped with cheesecake,
then topped with homemade salted caramel.
Yep, these yummy items all stacked up in these cute dessert cups.
I just love salty sweet desserts like these: Apple Pie Dip, Potato Chip Cookies, Margarita Cupcakes, Vanilla Bean Cupcakes with Salted Caramel and Easy Pretzel Toffee.
I’ve made salted caramel before and well yeah, I’ve even been know to burn a batch or two. I’ve followed the recipes and even managed to over salt a batch, but I saved that by adding it to buttercream frosting, yeah..plenty of sugar in there to balance it. This was the first time I made caramel from sweetened condensed milk. I cooked it in a double boiler on the stove and well I’m sure you’ll be seeing more recipes on here with caramel as it’s easy and delicious to make.
Cook the condensed milk until….it’s caramel in color, give it a taste, you’re going to LOVE it!
Adding salt to the caramel really makes it taste so delicious, it balances the sweetness and gives it a wonderful taste.
The oatmeal portion is nice and golden and hot out of the oven, then I poured on 2 teaspoons cheesecake mix and put them back in the oven.
The cheesecake portion is all baked!
I removed the cups from the cupcake pan with a plastic spreader that I slid around the edges to loosen them away from the sides. They came out easily.

Notes
I made caramel according to Eagle Condensed Milk Recipe.
I added a teaspoon of Kosher Salt when it was finished cooking.
I kept the caramel warm while I added it to all the tops of the Cheesecakes and that one on the right is mine, I added lots of salted caramel to it!
I was provided a gift package along with the opportunity to give one to one of my readers. All opinions are my own, those are priceless.

I love making homemade caramel. I think the salted version of caramel would be lovely on top of peach upside down cake.

Salted caramel would be great sandwiched between two toffee chip cookies!
