Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8 or 9 inch square pan with nonstick baking spray.

In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, and sugar until crumbly. Press the mixture firmly in the bottom of the prepared pan.

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and salt until creamy. Add the eggs and beat on medium speed until mixture is smooth.

Fold the Lucky Leaf Apple Pie Filling into the cheesecake mixture. Spoon or pour the cheesecake mixture on top of the crust.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, until filling is set. Remove and let cool on a wire rack for an hour.
Refrigerate until chilled completely.

Just before serving, cut into 12 squares, drizzle caramel sauce on top of each square, and sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Refrigerate leftovers.
