Rustic Apple Tart

Rustic Apple Tart

1 - 9-inch refrigerated pie crust
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
3 red or green apples, cored and sliced thin
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tub Cool Whip, thawed

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a pie plate with the crust.
In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese with the vanilla and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Carefully spread the cream cheese mixture in a 6-inch circle in the center.
In a separate bowl, toss apples with flour and remaining 1/4 cup of sugar. Spoon the apple mixture over the cream cheese. Fold the crust partially over the apples. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar and bake for 25 minutes, covering loosely with foil for the last 5 minutes. Cool and serve with Cool Whip.
