For topping, in a medium mixing bowl combine cream cheese, peanut butter, brown sugar, and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Spread onto the cooled crust.
3.
Brush apple slices with lemon juice, if desired. Arrange apple slices atop peanut butter mixture. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Drizzle with caramel topping. Sprinkle with peanuts. Cut into wedges to serve. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
