Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Using a 3-inch round cutter, cut out 12 circles. Press each circle into the cups of a mini muffin pan to form the tartlet shells.
Prick the bottom of each shell with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.
Bake the tartlet shells in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Let them cool completely before filling.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the caramel topping until fully combined.
Peel, core, and finely chop the apple. Toss the chopped apple with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Fold the apple pieces, chopped peanuts, and cinnamon into the caramel-cream cheese mixture.
Spoon the filling evenly into the cooled tartlet shells.
Top each tartlet with a dollop of whipped topping and an optional sprinkle of chopped peanuts or a light dusting of cinnamon for garnish.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
