Ingredients:

1  can (20 oz.) Comstock® or Wilderness® Apple Fruit Filling or Topping
1  pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1  tsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 eggs
1  cup caramel sundae syrup
2  Tbsp. toasted pecans (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pie crust on baking sheet; pour 1/2 can of apple pie filling into crust and spread evenly. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla. Mix until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition; pour filling over apple layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until center is almost set. Cool.
