I've made this twice in the last week. It's very easy/quick to make, and easy to make very pretty. You can basically make it look like the french tart a PP posted above by decoratively arranging the apple slices. The only change I made was to top it with a blend of white and brown sugar (with a dash of cardamom) instead of only white sugar. I also forgot the confectioner sugar both times and it was fine.

I do not use fat free cream cheese and believe I have substituted light butter for the margarine.

I made this last week with butter and full fat cream cheese. I received lots of compliments. Added butter and pecans to the topping.

I’ve been making this since it came out. Always a hit I always use butter but have used fat free, light and regular cream cheese and no one can tell.

Good to know butter works, is that generally the case?

I have some old family recipes with margarine and I didn't know if I could just use butter 1:1. Mom swears that some of the fake stuff is helpful with pie crusts, but margarine and Crisco weird me out so I just don't eat her baked goods.

Wait - you don't eat your own mom's baked goods that she makes for you because she uses margarine/Crisco??!
