Apple Caramel Sundae Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Add 2 tablespoons of the butter to a skillet and melt over medium-high heat. Add the apples and saute for 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• In the same skillet over medium heat, add the brown sugar and the remaining stick of butter. Stir it around until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, then pour in the cream. Stir it around and let it bubble up and thicken for about a minute. Turn the heat to low and add the apples back to the skillet. Sprinkle in the cinnamon, stir the mixture and let it thicken for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Spoon big scoops of vanilla ice cream into sundae glasses and drizzle over the caramel apple sauce.

Steps:

• Prepare the pie crust according to package instructions. Roll the dough out between 2 pieces of waxed paper to 1/4-inch thickness. Invert a heavy bottom 10-inch nonstick skillet over the dough, trace the outside edge of the pan and trim the excess. Put the pie dough on a sheet tray, cover it in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Slice each apple in 2 and place the halves in a bowl of water with a bit of lemon juice to keep them from browning. In a small bowl, combine the sugar with 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice and the salt.
• Put the same skillet used to measure out the pie crust, over medium-high heat, and add the butter. Sprinkle 3/4 of the sugar mixture over the melted butter. Arrange the apple halves flat side down in the pan. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the apples. Cook until the caramel syrup turns a deep golden brown color, about 15 minutes. Carefully arrange the chilled pie crust over the top of the cooked apples and use a spatula to tuck in the edges.
• Put the skillet in the oven and bake until the crust is cooked and is slightly brown in color, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and let it stand for around 5 minutes, then invert the pie onto a serving platter.
• In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer on medium speed, whip the heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice until soft peaks form. Serve the warm tart on individual plates with a dollop of whipped cream.

Spoon apple pie filling over pie. Microwave reserved caramel sauce on HIGH 30 sec. or until warmed; stir. Drizzle over pie. Let stand 15 min.

Steps:

• Pour remaining caramel mixture into pie crust; top with pecans. Pour 1 cup milk into large bowl. Add dry pudding mix. Beat with wire whisk 2 min. Gently stir in whipped topping. Spoon into crust. Freeze 4 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• Microwave caramels and 3 Tbsp. milk in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until caramels are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 1 min. Pour 1/3 cup sauce into small microwaveable bowl; refrigerate until ready to use. Pour remaining sauce into crust; sprinkle with nuts.
• Beat pudding mix and remaining milk in medium bowl with whisk 2 min. Stir in COOL WHIP; spoon into crust. Freeze 4 hours or until firm.

Steps:

• Make the apples: Toss apples with lemon juice in a large bowl, and let stand. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sugar, and stir until sugar dissolves and mixture is dark amber, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in apples, their juices, and the salt. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in Calvados and 1/2 cup cream. Transfer apple mixture to a bowl.
• Prepare an ice-water bath. Set the bowl in the bath, and let apple mixture cool, stirring occasionally, until mixture is cold and sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Use immediately (or refrigerate overnight).
• To assemble: Whisk remaining 1 cup cream to medium peaks. For each serving, place 2 caramelized apple wedges in a sundae glass. Top with a scoop of cinnamon ice cream, 2 caramelized apple wedges, and some pecan-oat crumble. Repeat ice cream, apple, and crumble layers. Top with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Microwave caramels and milk in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 to 1-1/2 min. or until caramels are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 1 min. Drizzle 1/2 cup of the caramel sauce evenly onto bottom of crust. Reserve remaining caramel sauce for later use. Top with scoops of ice cream, spreading evenly. Freeze 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, cook apples in butter and sugar in large skillet on medium heat 5 min. or until apples are tender, stirring frequently. Cool completely.
• Spoon apples over ice cream; drizzle with reserved caramel sauce. Sprinkle with nuts. Freeze 4 hours or overnight. Remove from freezer 10 min. before serving.
