Apple Delight is a decadent dessert with layers of buttery graham cracker crust, rich cream cheese, cool whip, chunky apple pie filling, and crunchy pecans. This dessert is packed with flavor and very easy to make.
For the crust, combine graham cracker crumbs with brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press firmly in the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish. Freeze while you make the filling.
For the filling, combine cream cheese with sugar, and vanilla. Beat until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Fold in half of the Cool Whip (8 ounces) and spread this mixture over the frozen crust.
Spoon apple pie filling over the cream cheese layer, arranging the apple slices evenly.
Top with the remaining Cool Whip. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Before serving, sprinkle with chopped pecans (if desired). Serve cold.
Notes
Be sure to use room temperature cream cheese. Do not use the variety in a tub, use the blocks of cream cheese!
