Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease or spray a 9 x13 pan.
- 2. Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.
- 3. In another bowl, mix brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, and 1 cup of the chopped nuts (keep the other 1/4 C for topping).
- 4. Stir in dry ingredients. When well-mixed reserve 1 cup for topping.
- 5. Pour into pan (it may be hard to spread but it will eventually, lol). Bake that for 20 minutes.
- 6. While baking, melt the caramels and milk in the microwave 2-3 mins. Stir carefully after each min (this is also not easy to do but it eventually will get smooth and creamy. Cool that for 5 minutes.
- 7. When the crust comes out of the oven, drain any juice from the apples. Pour the apples on the crust and spread evenly.
- 8. Then pour the caramel over the apples staying about 1/2" away from the edges.
- 9. Then drop teaspoons of the reserved batter over that spreading as well as you can. Sprinkle with reserved chopped pecans.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dessert will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your dessert tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the dessert until it is cooked through: Use a toothpick to check the center of the dessert. If it comes out clean, the dessert is done. If not, continue baking for a few more minutes.
- Let the dessert cool completely before serving: This will help the flavors to develop and the dessert to set properly.
