      1/2   c            Orange marmalade -- melted
 
        Preheat oven to 400 degress F.      To prepare
   the crust, cream the butter and 1/3 cup sugar, and add
   the flour and blended until mixture resembles coarse
   crumbs. Pat crumbs into the bottom and 1" up the sides
   of a 10" springform pan. Base 10 minutes, until
   golden. Cool. In the large bowl of an electric mixer,
   cream the cream cheese 1/2 cup sugar together until
   blended, scraping down the sides of the bowl several
   times. Mix in the eggs and vanilla. Pour the mixture
   evenly over the baked crust. Core apples and cut into
   thin even slices. Arrange apple slices in overlapping
   layers over the cream cheese filling. Mix 1/3 cup
   sugar and the cinnamon, and sprinkle over top of the
   apples. Bake 35 minutes, until the apples are tender
   and the cheesecake layer is set. Cool, then chill.
   Before serving, spoon the warm orange marmalade over
   the top. This cheesecake is pretty as apple slices
   bake into cheesecake filling with a cinnamon glaze on
   top. Recipe From:Great Old-Fashioned American Desserts
