Ingredients

Cinnamon Filling

whipped cream, for garnish
1/3 cup caramel sauce
1 tub whipped topping
salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 package cream cheese

Pie Crust

cinnamon sugar
2 tsp. butter, melted
1 sheet refrigerated pie crust

Apple Pie Filling

1 tsp. cinnamon
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
4 cups apples, peeled, cored and cubed
1 tbsp. unsalted butter

Method

01

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Toss in the apples, water, sugar, and cinnamon, stirring until combined. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until the apples are tender about 10-15 minutes. Drain any excess liquid out and allow it to cool.
02

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll pie crust on a cutting board. Brush the pie crust with the melted butter, then sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top.
03

Use a knife or cookie cutter of choice to cut out small shapes, then place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Cool completely.
04

In a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until smooth. Remove bowl from mixer and gently fold in the whipped topping until just combined. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip.
05

Add a layer of pie crust pieces to the bottom of each glass. Pipe half of the cinnamon filling on top of the crust, followed by half of the apple pie filling.
06

Drizzle caramel sauce over apples, then repeat the layering once more. Finish with a dollop of whipped cream and a few more pie pieces.
