A cheesecake built on the flavour that has dominated dessert menus for a decade, with caramel both through the filling and over the top. The salt is doing more than it appears. Cream cheese is already slightly sour, and caramel is relentlessly sweet, so salt sits between them and stops the filling reading as one flat note. It also suppresses bitterness, which is what keeps a dark caramel from turning harsh. The biscuit base is the only crisp element. Everything above it's soft, which is why the base has to be pressed firmly enough to hold a slice. Serves six.
