Caramel Apple Streusel Squares Recipe
The Caramel Apple Streusel Squares Recipe looked delicious and easy enough, so I made it for a special dessert for my family. I don’t often prepare mid-week desserts so when I do, it is always a welcomed surprise and treat. This recipe is easy and didn’t take long to prepare. I actually had ingredients already had on hand as the ingredients are simple – it is the combination that rocks!
I honestly didn’t expect the rave reviews that I received with this recipe. As I said, the ingredients seemed simple enough. The Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk made all the difference – I even used the Low-Fat version! The Caramel Apple Streusel Squares was rich with caramel and full of flavor. It was an indulgent dessert that everyone loved. I will be bringing this Caramel Apple Streusel Squares recipe to the next gathering we attend!
