Caramel Apple Bars image

These bars make an excellent fall dessert. We like to warm individual servings in the microwave and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It quickly became a family favorite; maybe it'll become one of your family's, too. -Carol Stuber, Osawatomie, Kansas

These bars are delicious! The crust is flaky and the filling is gooey and flavorful. I love the addition of the apples, they add a nice tartness to the sweetness of the caramel.
