GF Apple Cream Cheese Crisp

I made this for my in-laws who are visiting this weekend. I was a little hesitant when I put the runny cream cheese layer on, since I've never had apple crisp with cream cheese. But, it turned out well and we all think it's a keeper recipe! Yum - it would be even better with Blue Bunny Cinnamon ice cream on top!

Apple Layer Ingredients:                               ·2 TBS milk

·7 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced              ·2 TBS GF all purpose flour
