This is another winner that I got off of my friends blog www.nummiesforyou.blogspot.com. I have made this a couple of times for family dinners and everyone has loved it!
What you need:
Crust
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flour
Filling
1 egg
1/4 cup sour cream
8 oz. cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Topping
3 apples (peeled, cored, sliced thin) (either Gala or Granny Smith apples)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
pinch of cloves
pinch of nutmeg
1/4 cup sliced almonds
Crust:
Whip butter until creamy and then add sugar and beat until smooth. Add vanilla and flour until it forms a ball. Butter bottom and sides of a 9 inch spring form pan. Press crust mixture onto the bottom and up 1 inch on the sides.
Filling:
Beat the cream cheese until light. Add sugar and beat until blended. Add the vanilla, egg, and sour cream. Beat until smooth. Pour into crust and spread evenly.
Topping:
Mix apples, sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in a bowl until all the apples are covered. Lay apples flat on top of the filling in a fan shape or flower shape or any design you like. Sprinkle almonds in a ring around the outer edge of the apples. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes and then 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Serve warm or chilled with ice cream.
