- 1 Granny Smith apple, finely diced
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Finely chopped pecans

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, caramel sauce, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Mix until well-blended and smooth.
Fold in the finely diced Granny Smith apple until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Form the mixture into a ball shape using your hands or by wrapping it in plastic wrap and molding it into a sphere. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
Once the cheese ball is firm, remove it from the plastic wrap. Roll it in a mixture of finely chopped pecans and crushed graham crackers until evenly coated on all sides.
Place the cheese ball on a serving plate and drizzle with additional caramel sauce, if desired.
Serve with apple slices, graham crackers, or pretzels for dipping. Enjoy!
