Skim off the foam using a spatula and pour the cream cheese mixture over the caramel into the pan.Place the pan in a larger pan, place on oven rack and add boiling water halfway up the sides of the pan.
Bake for 45-50 minutes until set or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes almost clean.Remove the pan from water and cool completely on a cooling rack.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or better overnight.Run a knife around the edges of the cake to unmold it and invert onto a serving plate.
