 Caramel Apple Cheesecake Dessert


Caramel Apple Cheesecake Dessert is a delightful combination of creamy cheesecake, tender spiced apples, and gooey caramel, all layered on a buttery graham cracker crust. Here's how you can make it:


Ingredients:

For the Graham Cracker Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Layer:

  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Apple Layer:

  • 3 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced (such as Granny Smith)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For the Caramel Topping:

  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • Whipped cream, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

  2. Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until well mixed.
    • Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.

  3. Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:

    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
    • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
    • Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
    • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the graham cracker crust and spread it evenly.

  4. Prepare the Apple Layer:

    • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
    • Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and lemon juice to the skillet.
    • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
    • Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  5. Assemble the Dessert:

    • Spread the cooked apple mixture evenly over the cheesecake layer in the baking dish.

  6. Bake:

    • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.

  7. Cool and Chill:

    • Remove the dessert from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
    • Once cooled, refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours, or until fully chilled and set.

  8. Drizzle with Caramel:

    • Before serving, drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of the dessert.
    • Optionally, garnish with whipped cream.

  9. Serve:

    • Slice into squares and serve your delicious Caramel Apple Cheesecake Dessert chilled.

This dessert is perfect for fall gatherings or anytime you're craving the classic combination of caramel and apples with a creamy cheesecake twist. Enjoy!
