Description

Delightful No Bake Apple Cheesecake Jars filled with creamy cheesecake and spiced apples on a buttery graham cracker crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 medium fresh apples, diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • Optional: caramel for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Begin by crushing your graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix them in a bowl with melted butter and a bit of sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Divide the mixture among small jars or glasses and press down firmly to form an even layer.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract and sour cream until you achieve a velvety texture.
  3. Cook the Apples: In a skillet, melt a bit of butter over medium heat. Add diced apples, followed by cinnamon and nutmeg. Sauté until they are tender but still hold their shape, about 5-7 minutes. Let them cool slightly.
  4. Layer It Up: Take your prepared jars and start layering! Spoon in a layer of cheesecake filling, followed by a layer of sautéed apples. Repeat until you reach the top of the jars, finishing with a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs and a drizzle of caramel if desired.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate your jars for at least two hours, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve chilled and don’t forget to garnish with additional apple slices or whipped cream for that extra touch of indulgence.

Notes

Tips: Ensure your cream cheese is thoroughly softened for a smoother filling. Consider adding a pinch of lemon zest for a fresh note.
