Ingredients

4 eggs
2 cups milk
6 tbsp. butter, melted
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup sifted flour
butter or vegetable oil for greasing pan
2 cups cream cheese
2 cups apple pie filling
1/2 cup powdered sugar
caramel sauce, recipe follows
sweetened whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or cinnamon ice cream
thinly sliced apples
CARAMEL SAUCE:
6 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, melted
3 cups heavy cream

Steps:

1. Mix the eggs, milk, melted butter, salt and flour in a blender. Process until mixture is smooth. Chill for 3 hours. Heat a crepe pan or a small skillet. Brush it lightly with melted butter or vegetable oil. Spoon 2 T. of the batter in the pan and swirl to coat pan evenly. Cook for 1 minute or until light brown. Turn and brown the other side. Stack the crepes with waxed paper between them. Mix the cream cheese, pie filling, and powdered sugar in a bowl. Spread over each crepe and roll up. Spoon a small amount of warm Caramel Sauce over a dessert plate. Put 2 filled crepes over the Caramel sauce. Put a dollop of whipped cream over the crepes. Drizzle a small amount of the caramel sauce over the whipped cream. Arrange 3 or 4 apples slices in a fan on the side of the plate for garnish. Repeat for the remaining crepes. To make the Caramel sauce, heat the sugar in a pan over medium heat. Gently shake the pan until the sugar is a caramel color. Whisk in butter until almost blended. Whisk in cream. Bring to boil. Remove from heat and stir with a wooden spoon until all of the sugar is dissolved. Let stand until completely cooled. Store in airtight container in refrigerator. Reheat 2 Tbsp. per serving in top of double boiler or in microwave bowl in microwave.

Tips:

Use ripe apples. This will ensure that they are sweet and flavorful.
Peel and core the apples before slicing them. This will make them easier to eat.
Use a sharp knife to slice the apples thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the apples. This will prevent them from steaming instead of sautéing.
Cook the apples over medium heat until they are tender but still hold their shape.
Add the caramel sauce to the apples and stir to coat.
To make the crepes, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and eggs.
Gradually whisk in the milk until the batter is smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium heat.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swirl to coat the bottom.
Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
To serve, fill each crepe with the apple mixture and roll up.
Drizzle with additional caramel sauce and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
