  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 1 tube (8oz.) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • For Cheesecake Layer:
  • 8oz. cream cheese-softened at room temperature
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • For Apple Filling:
  • 2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Golden Delicious) – peeled and chopped in small pieces
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • For topping:
  • 3 Tablespoons melted butter
  • 7 Tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

 Directions

Preheat the oven to 375F. Grease 8 x 8 inch baking dish with non-stick spray, set aside.
To make the cheesecake filling beat together cream cheese, ½ cup sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, set aside.
To make apple pie filling stir together diced apples, ¼ cup sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch, until evenly coated, set aside.
Unroll crescent rolls and cut in two halves. Place 1 half of dough (4 crescents) at the bottom of baking dish. Pinch together the perforation and stretch the dough to make the bottom crust.
Spread cheesecake filling and smooth the top. Drain any excess of juice from the apple filling and
scatter diced apples over cheesecake filling.
On a sheet of baking paper spread remaining dough, seal the perforation and stretch to create the top crust. Invert the crust over apples.
Pour melted butter and spread on top of the crust. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Bake for about 35 minutes. Tent the top with aluminum foil if it starts to brown too quickly.
Cool completely before slicing and serving.
Store leftovers in the fridge.
