Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 3 large apples, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the glaze: 1 cup powdered sugar, 2-3 tablespoons milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla
