Caramel Apple Cheesecake!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

24 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

3 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for topping)

1 cup apple pie filling

1 apple, chopped (for garnish)

Crumbled graham crackers (for garnish)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.

In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract and sour cream until well combined.

Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust in the pan. Add a layer of apple pie filling and drizzle with caramel sauce. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter over the apple layer.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly browned. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly open for 1 hour.

Remove from oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

Before serving, garnish with chopped apples, crumbled graham crackers, and extra caramel sauce.
