How to make Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees.
  2. Place the golden Oreos in a food processor, process into crumbs. Add the melted butter and process until combined. Stir the cookie crumbs around to make sure they are coated in the butter.
  3. Press the mixture into a 9×9 baking dish that is lined with parchment paper or foil. Set aside.
  4. In the same food processor, (no need to clean!) place the apple pie filling. Pulse to a rough chop the apples a few times.
  5. Take out half of the filling and place it in a small bowl, set aside.
  6. Pulse the remaining apple pie filling until it is smooth, place in another small bowl and set aside.
  7. Into the food processor (once again, no need to clean!), add the cream cheese, sour cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and the egg. Pulse until smooth.
  8. Add the smooth apple filling and then pulse until combined. Pour mixture on top of the crust and smooth it out evenly.
  9. Dollop the roughly chopped apples on top of the cheesecake mixture. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until there is a very slight jiggle in the center of the cheesecake.
  10. Take the pan out of the oven and let sit on the counter, let cool for 20 minutes.
  11. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least three hours to set. 
  12. Cut into 9 even bars, serve with caramel sauce of your choice. I recommend making my Cinnamon Buttermilk Caramel Sauce!

That’s it! You only need to dirty up one appliance for this caramel apple cheesecake, I love that!

How to store:

Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars need to be refrigerated, you can place them in the container they were cooked in or an airtight container and refrigerate for about 4-5 days.

These can also be frozen which is one of my favorite things about Cheesecake Bars in general.

Freeze Cheesecake Bars for up to 3 months. Place cooled bars on a plate and let freeze. Once frozen transfer to a airtight container or a freezer baggie baggie.

Is Cheesecake supposed to be jiggly?

Just slightly. Make sure to remove this cheesecake from the oven when center still has a little jiggle to it, otherwise it will be overcooked.

This will continue to bake once it is removed fro the oven that is why we want the center to just be slightly jiggly, but to underdone. 

So just shake that pan and if it still looks liquidy, its not done but if it looks set with a slight jiggle then you are good to go!

Tips and Tricks:

  • This is all made in a food processor there is not need to dirty any other dishes, win!
  • Make sure that your cream cheese is smooth so you don’t have any lumps.
  • It is important to let your cheesecake cool on the counter before placing in the refrigerator, this helps it from cracking.
  • These can be frozen see my tips above.
  • Remove from the oven when the center is still just slightly jiggly.
