Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons, divided

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with 1/2 cup sugar in an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth. Then add eggs, 1 at a time, and vanilla. Stir to combine. Pour over warm crust.

In a small bowl, stir together chopped apples, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spoon evenly over cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle evenly with Streusel topping. Bake 30 minutes, or until filling is set. Drizzle with caramel topping.

  • 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup quick cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.

    Crazy good. Looks impressive when you cut it into squares. I didn't do the caramel sauce because I thought it was plenty without it. If you do the crust in the food processor it's really fast to make too.

    This is the BEST dessert, if you love caramel, apples and cream cheese. Plus, the topping is cooked with yummy caramel on top, unlike similar desserts I have eaten in restaurants, where their ‘crispy’ topping is doughy. For those who don’t really like cheesecake, you will love this… my granddaughter hates cheesecake and loved this. This recipe goes a long way, but, one bar will leave you wanting another, and another…..so better make one for yourself to keep at home!

    This was so delicious! Would go great with some vanilla ice cream. It was just as good cold the next day.
