• active time: 20 minutes
• total time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 spice cake mix

1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/3 cup apple cider

1 cup chopped walnuts

2 cups diced apples

1 cup caramel apple dip (sold in the produce section by the apples)

1/2 cup powdered sugar

2 teaspoons water

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick spray.

Combine the cake mix, butter, and apple cider until it forms a soft dough.

Press half the dough gently into the bottom of the prepared pan. You will need to spray your hands with baking spray to do this.

Spread the caramel dip over the dough in the pan. Sprinkle with the apples and walnuts.

Drop the rest of the dough over the top of the mixture in the pan. Try to drop small pieces evenly everywhere. Bake for 30 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for at least one hour.

Stir together the powdered sugar and the water. Drizzle over the top of the bars. Let set.

Refrigerate bars until ready to serve. Heat a square in the microwave for 10-15 seconds and top with vanilla ice cream for an amazing treat.
