CARAMEL APPLE CHEESECAKE BARS


Ingredients


How to make this recipe

 First step : preheat oven to 350 F.
Second step : in 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 9x13 baking pan lined with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake 15 min or until lightly browned.
 Step 3 : 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.
Step 4 : in a small bowl, stir together chopped apples, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spoon evenly over cream cheese mixture.
Step 5 : for the streusel topping: In 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.
Step 6 : sprinkle Streusel topping over apples. Bake 40-45 min, or until filling is set. Drizzle with caramel topping and let cool. Serve cold and enjoy! Make 16 servings.
