<p><em>Apple-Caramel Cheesecake Bars are basically a four-layer dessert. Not counting the caramel drizzle on top! The four layers are a shortbread crust that is baked and then the cheesecake layer goes on top of that. I made a simple apple-caramel topping for the next layer and lastly, we have the crumb layer which is similar to a fruit crisp topping.</em></p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How I Made Apple-Caramel Cheesecake Bars</h2>



<ol class="wp-block-list"><li>For best quality use full-fat butter and cream cheese.</li><li>In my opinion, pink lady apples are better than granny smith for this recipe.</li><li>I make all of the layers and then assemble instead of layering as I go.</li><li>Adding the caramel drizzle on top is completely optional!</li><li>Spray your pan with baking spray and then line with parchment paper. Getting these out of the pan can be a beast otherwise ð.</li><li>The caramel apple topping for this recipe makes a delicious pie!</li><li>Old-Fashioned oats make a prettier crumb topping.</li></ol>

<p>The best thing about this dessert is that all four of the layers can be made ahead(store in the refrigerator). The dessert can be assembled, baked and chilled overnight before serving. It can also be made ahead, frozen and then thawed in the refrigerator until serving time. It is definitely the most versatile dessert and perfect for Thanksgiving!</p>
