I have tried these and everyone that loves pie, love these. I use a 21 oz can of apple filling (Had about 1/2 cup left). With the two pie crusts I can get about 17 (mason jar lid size). Also, I cut the “cookie size” out first, then layer with caramel, apple filling, and crust strips. Eggs wash. Drizzle with your sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon. The temp on my stove , set at 350 degrees makes them just fine at about 25-30 minutes. I made mine for a style show, babyshower, and just because. Going to try cherry and peach next!

I have made a version of no bake cheesecake that will last a week in the fridge using heavy cream. The key is to use clear unflavored gelatin mixed into the cream cheese mixture before folding in the whipped cream and refrigerating for at least 4 hours to set. You will bloom the gelatin into about 1/2 cup water while you beat the cream cheese, vanilla and sugar until fluffy. Heat the gelatin over low heat but do not boil. Stream gelatin into the cream cheese mixture as you beat it. Quickly fold in whipped cream, our onto prepared crust and refrigerate. Making it this way makes the cheesecake less sweet.

I made these yesterday for the first time and will be making them again. I did add a little espresso powder to both the batter and the frosting, about 1 teaspoon each, just enough to enhance the chocolate. I also added a little sea salt after I frosted them for that sweet salty flavor. The texture is so creamy! I will definitely be making them again.
