Apple Pie Lasagna

By natstew627

The Apple Pie Lasagna  consists of layers of graham cracker, a caramel brown sugar cream cheese, apple pie filling, whipped cream and chocolate toffee pieces. The caramel brown sugar cream cheese  is to die for, I could shovel it in my mouth by the spoonful. I’m not saying that I did that or not, but I am just saying that you COULD. I love the chocolate toffee bites because it adds in a little bit of crunch with every bite. I used a 9×9” pan for this recipe. If you want to bake in a 9×13” pan, I suggest to double the recipe below.

Ingredients

• For the Pie Filling:
• 5-6 apples, medium, peeled and sliced
• 2 tbsp all purpose flour
• 1/2 C light brown sugar, packed
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp apple pie spice
• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• juice from 1 lemon
• For the Cream Cheese Filling:
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 C powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 C heavy cream
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 2 tbsp caramel
• 8 oz cool whip
• For the Lasagna:
• 2-3 pkg graham crackers
• 8 oz cool whip
• 1 C toffee bites

Preparation

Step 1

Peel and slice your apples into small pieces; about the size of a dime. Place in a medium size saucepan. Squeeze the juice from a whole lemon over the apples.

Add all of your dry ingredients: flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and apple pie spice. Mix all ingredients well and then add maple syrup.

Using a saucepan on medium-high heat, cook the apples for about 15-18 minutes until they begin to brown and bubble. Remove from heat and cool completely. Refrigerate if necessary.

Beat cream cheese on medium-high speed with a wire whisk attachment until light and fluffy. Turn off mixer and add dry ingredients: powered sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon. Beat into cream cheese.

Add heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract. Beat on medium-high speed until whipping cream is fully mixed into cream cheese. Add caramel sauce last and mix into batter.

Add cool whip and beat on medium speed until mixture is well combined. Divide into thirds.

Cover graham crackers with a layer of the cream cheese batter and spread evenly. Spoon apple pie filling over cream cheese. Add a small handful of toffee chips on top and cover with a thin layer of cool whip. Repeat this twice so that you end up with three layers. Cover the top layer of Cool Whip with additional toffee bites and drizzle with caramel.
