Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1 tablespoon finely chopped pecans or walnuts



Instructions

1. Combine graham cracker crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon and butter; pat into a 7-inch spring form pan.

2. Beat granulated white sugar and brown sugar into cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs, whipping cream, corn-starch, and vanilla. Beat for about 3 minutes on medium speed of a hand-held electric mixer.

3. Pour mixture into the prepared crust.

4. Combine apple slices with remaining sugar, cinnamon and nuts; place topping evenly over the top of cheesecake.

6. Let stand in the covered pot (after turning it off) for about 1 to 2 hours, until cool enough to handle. Cool thoroughly before removing pan sides. Chill before serving.
