No bake apple cheesecake dessert

Well, here I am you guys, sneaking in one last apple dessert right before Thanksgiving!  This one is so impossibly easy to make, there’s no reason not to get it on your holiday menu.

Basically, I still had an extra can of pie filling in my cabinet.  I was itching to use it up, but I wanted something fun and different from traditional apple pie.

Growing up my mom always made a cherry pie filling dessert that everyone always raved about.  So, that’s where the inspiration for this cheesecake like apple goodness came from!

Easy no bake apple dessert with cheesecake filling

My apple dessert starts with a simple graham cracker and pecan crust.  The easiest way to make this is to grind the crackers and pecans together in a food processor or blender for a really nice fine consistency.

A great tip is to press the crust into the bottom of the pan with the back of a measuring cup.  This will make sure the crust is in the pan nice and firm, so that it won’t fall apart when you cut this for serving.Another note is that it’s best to let this crust chill for a good 30 minutes before adding the filling!

Our filling is really delicious with fall flavor as well!  I love using brown sugar and cinnamon for those warm flavors that really compliment the apple.  Your filling will be nice and thick, creamy, and after adding it and the pie filling you can serve this dessert right away if you’d like or chill for later.
