Ingredients List
- 1 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 TBSP sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 lbs cream cheese
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 TBSP flour
- 4 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ¾ cup toffee pieces
- 3 Granny Smith apples
- 3 TBSP butter
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
Directions
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, 2 TBSP sugar and melted butter. Press this into the bottom of a 10 inch spring form pan.
Bake crust for 10 minutes at 350F and set aside.
Mix the cheese and sugar with paddle attachment on medium speed, about 3 minutes.
Add in the flour on low speed. Add eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides and bottom after each egg. Add the egg yolks and vanilla. Fold in the toffee pieces.
Pour the batter into the preparend pan. Wrap aluminum foil on the outside of the ban and bake in a water batch at 350F for approximately 1 ½ hours. A knife inserted should come out clean when the cake is done.
Chill the cake overnight and then remove from the pan. Make the topping. Peel and core three apples(Granny Smith). Slice apples thinly.
In a heavy saucepan melt 3 TBSP butter. Stir in ¼ cupsugar and cook until the sugar starts to caramelize. Add the apples and cook them until they are tender. Cool.
Make the caramel. Pour the sugar into the center of a deep saucepan. Carefully pour 1/3 cup water around the walls of the pan, trying not to splash any of the sugar onto the walls. Do not stir; gently draw you finger twice through the center of the sugar, making a cross, to moisten it. Over high heat, bring to a full boil and cook without stirring, swirling the pan occasionally to even out the color, until the mixture is medium caramel in color, 5 to 10 minutes. Immediately turn off the heat and use a wooden spoon to slowly and carefully stir in the cream(it will bubble up and may splatter).
Top cheesecake with apples. Drizzle caramel over top of the apples.
