Spiced Apple Cheesecakes

• 1 None refrigerated pie crust
• 2 pkg (8 oz each) cream cheese, chopped, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp mixed spice, such as pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2 None eggs, separated
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 None apples, peeled, cored, halved and thinly sliced
• None None Cinnamon sugar, to serve

1. Preheat the oven to 350u0b0F. Lightly grease 8 cups of two 6-cup Texas muffin pans. Line each cup with 2 thin strips of parchment paper, crossing at the bottom.
2. Using a 2 1/3-inch cutter, cut out 12 rounds from the pastry. Prick in several places with a fork. Place each round in a prepared muffin cup. Bake for 5-10 mins, until golden. Cool.
3. Beat the cream cheese, sugar and spices in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the cream until combined.
4. In a small, clean bowl, beat the egg whites with electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold into the cheesecake mixture.
5. Top each pastry round with 1 tbsp of filling. Cover with half of the apple slices.
6. Pour the remaining filling evenly over the apples. Top with the remaining apple slices.
7. Bake for 20-25 mins, until just firm. Cool in the oven with the door ajar.
8. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
