Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.

In large bowl, stir together cookie mix, oats, 1/4 cup of the brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Add melted butter; mix until crumbly. Set aside.

In small bowl, beat cream cheese, granulated sugar and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.

In large bowl, toss apples with remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar and remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Distribute apples evenly in baking dish.

Spoon tablespoonfuls of cream cheese mixture randomly over apples. Sprinkle with cookie mixture.
