How to Make Caramel Apple Dessert Squares

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups Bisquick mix and ½ cup granulated sugar.
  3. Gradually stir in ¾ cup milk until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Pour batter into an ungreased 9x9x2 inch baking pan.
  5. Arrange 4-5 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thinly, evenly over the batter.
  6. Sprinkle apples with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  7. In a small bowl, combine ½ cup packed brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  8. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture evenly over the apples.
  9. Carefully pour 1 cup of boiling water over the apples and brown sugar mixture.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The caramel will have formed on top during baking.
  11. Let cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream (optional).
