Our cheesecake-loving children inspired this recipe I adapted from several others. It was a hit with them because the apples make it less rich and heavy. My family eats it anytime-for breakfast or as a late-night snack-and I serve it for dessert or when company comes for coffee. -Janice White, Encampment, Wyoming

The apple strudel cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste. I also found the strudel crust to be a bit dry. However, my family loved it, so I would still recommend it.

This cheesecake was delicious! The strudel crust was flaky and buttery, and the cheesecake filling was creamy and smooth. The apples added a nice tartness and sweetness. I would definitely make this again.
