DISAPPEARING CARAMEL APPLE BARS
I have been making these for about 10 years and have had many requests for the recipe. They are easy to make and disappear so quickly, if you don't grab one you might miss your chance! Serve immediately or refrigerate. Bars cut more easily if refrigerated first.

Tips:
- For a gooey caramel layer, use a combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar. The brown sugar will add a rich molasses flavor, while the granulated sugar will help the caramel to set.
- To prevent the caramel from burning, stir it constantly over medium heat. Once it starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low and continue stirring until it reaches a deep amber color.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the doneness of the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it's ready.
- To make sure the apple layer is evenly cooked, slice the apples thinly and arrange them in a single layer in the baking dish.
- The streusel topping adds a delicious crunchy texture to the dessert. If you don't have any on hand, you can make your own by combining flour, sugar, butter, and cinnamon.
- Serve the caramel apple dessert squares warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Caramel apple dessert squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a gooey caramel layer, a sweet apple filling, and a crunchy streusel topping, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a dessert that's both delicious and impressive, give caramel apple dessert squares a try.
