    Caramel Apple Cheesecake

    The next time you need to bake a dessert that is sure to impress, skip the usual chocolate chip cookies or vanilla cake and go straight to the store to buy all of the ingredients you need for these amazing Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars. With the smooth and creamy cheesecake, the tartness of the apples and the sweetness of the caramel drizzle, your friends and family will think they died and went straight to Heaven. Don't plan on having any leftovers and make sure you are first in line. Your guests are sure to savor every last crumb of this amazing All-American dessert.

    Sure, you could just buy a cheesecake at the store, but store-bought cheesecakes always taste flat, bland and a little freezer burned. Make your own cheesecake with these Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars, however, and you'll achieve a savory taste that is out of this world. Your friends and family won't believe you made this yourself. It is that good.

    Not only is this recipe mouthwateringly delicious, but it is healthier for you than a store-bought cheesecake as well. It contains real ingredients like apples, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, without all of those additives, preservatives and food dyes that you'll find in those processed chemical concoctions at the store. As a bonus, you can even make your own sauce to drizzle on top with this homemade caramel sauce recipe.

    Fall is almost here, which means that apple season isn't far behind. If you love apples as much as I do, be sure to whip up a batch of these Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars and don't forget to check out my crockpot apple recipes that you can make ahead of time and freeze.
