The holidays are associated with so many warm memories for me.  There have been so many family car trips both when I was a child with my parents and again with my own family.  Each time, we were traveling towards a grandma’s house and wonderful food.  Snowstorms, sibling squabbles, and boredom were all worth it to get to our destination.  All of the grandmothers in my life, both my own and my children’s spread tables laden with enough food to feed a small army.  Every dinner ended with a spectacular dessert: pies, cheesecakes, cakes, you name it.   We always saved room for dessert!

These days, we live too far away from extended family to gather together.  However, that hasn’t stopped me from trying to encourage holiday memories in the children who are still left at home.  We have started inviting other families to share our holiday meals and of course, those meals still have to end with a stellar dessert.  Tradition is tradition, after all!

Apple Crisp Cheesecake with Caramel Sauce

This year, I am serving an Apple Crisp Cheesecake, made with Quaker Oats rolled oats.  It is a combination of two of my family’s favorite desserts: apple crisp and cheesecake.  The crust under the cheesecake is like an oatmeal cookie, then apples and a streusel topping are baked on top of the cheesecake.  Once it is cut to serve, caramel sauce is drizzled over the top.
