1 Video | Photo: Caramel Apple Cheesecake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 (21-ounce) can apple pie filling
- 1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust
- 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup caramel topping
- 12 pecan halves, plus 2 tablespoons chopped pecans
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Reserve 3/4 cup of the apple filling; set aside. Spoon the remaining filling into the crust. Beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add the eggs and mix well. Pour this over the pie filling.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center of the cake is set. Cool to room temperature.
Mix the reserved pie filling and caramel topping in a small saucepan and heat for about 1 minute, or until spreadable. Spoon the apple-caramel mixture over the top of the cheesecake and spread evenly. Decorate the edge of the cake with pecan halves and sprinkle with chopped pecans. Refrigerate the cake until ready to serve.

Although this has become my mom's favorite, it is not mine....seems more like a Sandra Lee semi-homemade recipe....just keep in mind you're eating apple pie filling from a can, and that's pretty much how the pie tasted. Much prefer Paula's apple cake with fresh apples. Mom actually prefers it in the mini-pie tins.

I tried making this because the picture made it look good, holy cow was it AMAZING! it is also super fast to make. I made the crust for it too and it was still easy. Members of my family that don't like cheese cake LOVED this one.
