I had bought a bag of apples on sale and needed to use them up and found this recipe in one of my cookbooks. I always look through this cookbook, but I’ve never made anything out of it. I am so bad about that. I love to read cookbooks so I have several, but I get most of my recipes off of the internet or from my family, haha! I decided that I was going to make these and send them with Adam to work. I had a little taste and these were like apple pie in bar form. Great at room temperature, but even better warmed up a bit. These did turn out a bit thinner than the picure in the cookbook, so next time I think I will use a smaller baking dish so they are nice and thick and you can hold onto them better. Just reduce the baking time a bit. Hope you enjoy these great fall treats!
