DIRECTIONS:
STEP 1:
preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
STEP 2:
combine and set aside graham cracker crumbs and cinnamon in a medium bowl

between the muffin cups

Let the pan cool

melt the butter in a medium-sized pan and add the apples, brown sugar, spices, and 3 tablespoons of warm water
STEP 7:
cook over medium-high heat, for around 5 to 6 minutes or until the mixture is very soft and tender
STEP 8:
mix well the cornstarch and 2 teaspoons of water into a small dish Then I add it to the pan and continue cooking until the apples are moist, and the filling thickens for around 5 more minutes
STEP 9:
Using medium speed to beat cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla for 2 minutes until it thickens I put it for thirty min in the freezer, and I move to a bag for piping
STEP 10:
