Choose Firm Apples: Look for varieties like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith to hold the filling without getting mushy. When coring, don’t cut through to the bottom.
Room Temp Cream Cheese: Ensure a creamier filling by using cream cheese that's at room temperature. You can also use reduced-fat versions if desired.
Monitor Baking Time: Apples should be tender but not overly soft; adjust cooking time accordingly.
Customize Toppings: Feel free to experiment with different toppings like chocolate chips, ice cream, or whipped cream.
