For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of white sugar in the cheesecake filling. A springform pan is recommended for easy removal of the cheesecake, but it's not essential. If the crust starts to brown too quickly during baking, cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Feel free to add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the apple pie filling for an extra touch of warmth. To create apple slices, simply slice 1 apple to 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch thick, and arrange apple slices around outside edge of cooled cheesecake before spreading caramel sauce.
