Dairy State Apple Pie

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 5 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
• 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 5 cups sliced peeled tart apples
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons cold butter
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or hickory nuts
• Vanilla ice cream, optional

1. In a bowl, stir flour, butter, cheese and salt until crumbly. Sprinkle with milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring until pastry holds together.
2. Form into a ball. Roll out on a lightly floured surface. Transfer to a 9-in. pie pan; trim and flute edges.
3. In a bowl, beat cream cheese, egg and sugar until smooth. Stir in apples; pour into crust. In another bowl, mix flour, sugar and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in nuts. Sprinkle over apples.
4. Bake at 350u0b0 for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 300u0b0. Bake 30-35 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly (cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary). Serve warm or chilled with ice cream if desired.
