Ingredients

1 (21 oz) can apple pie filling

1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened

0.5 cup white sugar

0.25 tsp vanilla extract

2 eggs

0.25 cup caramel ice cream topping

12 pecan halves

0.66666668653488 cup chopped pecans

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Reserve 3/4 cup of apple pie filling; set aside. Spoon remaining pie filling into crust.

Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl; beat until smooth. Add eggs and mix well; pour over apple filling in crust.

Bake until edges are puffed and surface of cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature.

To make the caramel apple topping: Mix reserved apple filling and caramel sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until warmed through, about 1 minute.

Arrange apple slices around outside edge of cooled cheesecake. Spread caramel sauce evenly on top; decorate with pecan halves around edge. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.

Chill until ready to serve.
