Apple Cake Bars

The other day I posted on Facebook that I had apple crisp in the oven.  Later that night, I had a comment from a reader that they too were eating a yummy apple treat,; Apple Squares.  I, of course, immediately requested the recipe.  She ever so kindly and quickly messaged me the recipe.

Me being me, I made a few small changes and made the squares tonight, with the help of my husband who did ALL the peeling & chopping!  See honey, I don't just trash talk you in my blog, I can praise you too!
