Experiment in cheese cake
A few weeks ago I saw a recipe for pecan pie topped cheese cake. Yummster!
I checked the recipe. It called for a whole pie in the cheese cake, crust and all. That was not quite right to me. So I tried a little different tact.
When you bake a pecan pie you get a rich gelatinous filling topped with pecans. I cooked the exact same recipe in a sauce pot on the stove. This gives you a caramel type sauce with pecans.
After cooling some I poured it over a cooled new york cheese cake.
The caramel topping is rich and smooth. New York cheese cake is always perfect. So with a few adjustments to the topping we have a winner!
Oh! By the way! I sneaked some bourbon into each part of this cheese cake. Yummster!

This is the result! Now, I got a little heavy handed with the topping, but that is the only thing wrong with this picture!
