This is what has happened, you have overtightened the filter on to the gasket, when the engine got hot the first time like that, the oil and heat mix caused the gasket has squeezed it's way into things, locking it on permanently. I don't know what to tell you, other than try a set of channel locks on the remains, or remove the filter mount if you can and try to get it off in a vise.You don't know what you've got til it's gone
