Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 oz heavy whipping cream
  • 2 oz unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground allspice
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, divided
  • 2 each Honeycrisp apples, peeled and small diced
  • 1 box cinnamon graham crackers for serving

Instructions
 

Roasting the Apples

  • In a bowl, toss the diced apples with half of the brown sugar, cinnamon, and allspice.
  • Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper, add the apples, and dot with butter.
  • Roast at 375℉ (190℃) for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized.
  • Remove and allow the apples to cool for 15 minutes.

Make the Cheesecake Base

  • While the apples cool, whip the softened cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, and remaining brown sugar until smooth, creamy, and lightly fluffy.

Fold and Chill

  • Gently fold the cooled roasted apples into the cheesecake mixture, keeping the texture light.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Shape and Serve

  • Once chilled, form the dip into a rustic ball or soft mound on a serving platter.

Notes

Serve chilled with cinnamon graham crackers.
