Crust:
\n2 cups all-purpose flour
\n1\/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
\n1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened<\/p>\n
Cheesecake Filling:
\n3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
\n3\/4 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons, divided
\n3 large eggs
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons vanilla extract<\/p>\n
Apples:
\n3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and finely chopped
\n1\/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
\n1\/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg<\/p>\n
Streusel topping
\n1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
\n1 cup all-purpose flour
\n1\/2 cup quick cooking oats
\n1\/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened<\/p>\n
1\/2 cup caramel topping
\n
\nPreheat oven to 350 degrees F.
\nIn a medium bowl, combine flour and brown sugar. Cut in butter with a pastry blender (or 2 forks) until mixture is crumbly. Press evenly into a 9×13 baking pan lined with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned.<\/p>\n
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with 3\/4 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.<\/p>\n
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 40-45 minutes, or until filling is set. Drizzle with caramel topping and let cool. Serve cold and enjoy!<\/p>\n
Streusel Topping:
\nIn a small bowl, combine all ingredients. I like to really combine it by using my clean hands to thoroughly combine the butter into the mixture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
