Easy to make, press your graham cracker mixture into a spring- form pan, top with chopped apple mixture, and pour over the cheesecake batter and bake. It is best to use some sort of cooking apple, like Jonathan or Macintosh, but you can use pretty much anytime of apple. If you use a real tart apple just like granny smith, just add a couple additional tablespoons of sugar, and it will be just as delicious.
