caramel apple cheesecake bars

Really nice & rich! Definitely use Granny Smith apples as they are so nice and tart. I only made one change and that was adding a 1/8 cup brown sugar to the cream cheese mix.

The Apple Caramel Cheesecake bars were easy to make and the bars came out creamy and rich! I would recommend that they are made about 3 hours before your dinner with at least an hour and a half in the refrigerator before serving.

So good! These bars were delicious. I used 3 apples instead of 2 and instead of the caramel dip, I made my own caramel sauce using kraft caramels and evaporated milk (it’s what I had on hand).

Very tasty. Just like the other review I strongly suggest cutting the apples as indicated in the recipe. It was a big hit!
