4 eggs |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
3 teaspoons cinnamon |
2 tablespoons applejack |
1 small apple, peeled and sliced |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F In medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and butter; mix well to moisten. Press crumbs in bottom and 3/4 way up sides of 10−inch spring−form pan. Set aside.
2. In large bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla extract; mix at medium speed until well blended. Add eggs one at a time until of batter consistency. Add flour, cinnamon and brandy or apple juice; gently mix until combined. Pour into crust−lined pan.
