Easy Pastry Shop Apple Tart Recipe.
This recipe is perfection!  Its so light and creamy, the crust is crunchy and the almonds are a great compliment to the apples & cinnamon.  I made this last night and even ate a piece for breakfast.  Feel free to judge me.

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CRUST:
 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup flour
 FOR THE CREAM FILLING:
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

FOR THE TOP:

  • 3 apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds or choppedwalnuts
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.Make the crust: Cream the butter and sugar. Stir in the vanilla. Finally, mix in the flour to make a smooth dough. Alternately, put thebutter, sugar, vanilla, and flour in the food processor and pulse to crumbs. Pour them into your pan and press into place. Press into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan, giving it about a 1-inch rim. Bake 15 minute, or until lightly golden. Remove the tart shell from the oven.

While the crust bakes, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, eggand vanilla for the cream filling until smooth. Make the topping by tossing the apple slices with the cinnamon, sugar, and nuts.

Remove the tart shell from the oven. Spread over the cream mixture. Arrange the apple slices on top, and then scatter over the nuts. Bake until the apples are tender and golden, about 40 minutes.
