Delicious PHILLY Bavarian Apple Torte Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar, divided
• 0.5 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup flour
• 1 (250 g) package PHILADELPHIA Brick Cream Cheese, softened
• 1 egg egg
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 4 Granny Smith or Golden Delicious apples, peeled, sliced
• 0.25 cup sliced almonds

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. In a small bowl, beat together 1/3 cup sugar and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the flour and mix thoroughly. Spread the resulting crust evenly on the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.
3. In the same bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1/3 cup sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the crust. In a large bowl, combine the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon. Toss in the apples to coat, then spoon the apple mixture over the cream cheese layer and sprinkle with almonds.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and continue baking until the center of the torte is set, approximately 25 minutes. Cool the torte on a wire rack, then carefully loosen it from the rim of the pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Store any leftover torte in the refrigerator.
