Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature, beaten
8 medium red baking apples, such as Gala
1/2 cup crushed graham crackers (about 5 whole crackers)
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Prepared caramel sauce, for serving
1/2 cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped

  • Mix together the cream cheese, 2/3 cup sugar and vanilla with a rubber spatula in a medium bowl until completely smooth with. Add the eggs and stir until completely combined.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F. Cut a 1/4-inch off the top of each apple and use a melon baller or teaspoon to remove the stem and core and to hollow out about 2/3 of the apple leaving 1/2-inch of flesh around the edge (reserve the removed apples for applesauce or smoothies). Fill each apple with cheesecake batter just below the rim. Wipe away any drips or spills off the outside and top of the apple before baking. Arrange apples in a 9-by-13-inch baking pan and bake until the apples are soft but still hold their shape and have not split, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely before serving.
  • Meanwhile, pulse together the graham crackers, cinnamon and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs. Add butter and process until combined.
  • Divide apples among small serving plates and top each with a generous drizzle of caramel and sprinkles or graham cracker mixture and chopped walnuts.

This is one of those recipes that seem like they might have potential so you cut it out and save it. Finally get around to trying it and find it is now a regular feature in your meal planning. It is great because it can be easily adjusted to be low-fat. Leave out the egg (Won't notice its missing), use the whole wheat variety of cinnamon raisin bread (check the points and get the lowest), use 1/3 less fat cream cheese (not fat free), omit butter add Brummel and Brown. These are great left over. I even pack them for lunch, they are great cold! This is from Woman's World Magazine.

Provided by DawnYL

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
1 tablespoon granulated sugar or more to taste
1/2 cup cold heavy cream, whipped
5 Granny Smith Apples, washed well
1 fresh lemon, juiced
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon or to taste
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
caramel sauce to drizzle

Steps:

  • Mix the cream cheese and sugar together. Fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream and refrigerate until ready to use. Slice your apples in half and carefully scoop out the insides, leaving an edge of the pulp before the skin. Rub lemon juice on the pulp of your apple to keep it white. Remove seeds from the scooped out apple and chop up the rest. Cook the chopped apple in a small stock pot over medium high heat with a little water. Once the apples start to soften, stir in your cinnamon and cook until you reach the consistency of apple pie filling. Fill your apple "cups" with the cheesecake filling so that it is level. Top with small spoonful of cooked apple, a sprinkle of chopped pecans and a drizzle of caramel sauce. Enjoy!
