Caramel Apple Crisp Cheesecake: Creamy cheesecake meets crunchy apple crisp. This decadent dessert is the best of both worlds!
When I think of my all time favorite dishes, they have:
a. A balance of flavors
b. Contrasting textures
c. Loads of sugar doesn’t hurt either
This recipe features amazing flavors. Rich brown sugar, spicy cinnamon, and tart apples. It reminds me a lot of my caramel apple cheesecake. Except, there’s also a great contrast between the smooth creamy cheesecake, and the crunchy topping.
