Ingredients Needed
- Nilla Wafers: The crust is made with these vanilla cookies but you can also make a graham cracker crust.
- Apples: Any kind works great!
- Sweetened Condensed Milk: This is the glue that holds the magic bars together.
- White chocolate chips
- Rolos: Or whatever other chocolate or caramel candy you’d like.
- Pecans: Chopped, or use walnuts.
How to make Fall Magic Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×9” square pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Process the Nilla Wafers in a food processor until they are a fine crumb. Stir crumbs into melted butter and add salt, stirring with a fork. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 5 minutes.
- Stir sweetened condensed milk and cinnamon together in a small bowl or measuring cup.
- Sprinkle apples, Rolos, pecans, and white chocolate chips over hot crust. Pour SCM over the top evenly. Return to oven and bake another 21-24 minutes until the edges are golden. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
Expert Tips
- You can swap any candy for Rolos, as well as, you can use any chocolate chip variation for the chocolate chips.
- Try this recipe with a base of graham crackers, instead of Nilla Wafers!
FAQs
Yes you can freeze them in an airtight container for up to a month!
There are a few reasons this could be happening. If you cut the bars right after they come out of the oven–they are still too hot. Otherwise it may be because the first layer wasn’t pressed down enough into the pan.
They don’t need to be, but you can keep them fresh. Make sure they are stored in an airtight container.

Yum! Magic bars are an amazing thing but these take it to the next level 🙂
These are just loaded with everything awesome. I love the nilla wafer crust rather than just graham crackers. Very creative! And of course everything is better drenched in caramel.
I read that about the power situation a FB update of yours and I was like just what she needed, in the middle of all that construction! Always something, I swear.
Drenched in caramel, yes. EVERYTHING is better that way!!
I have to make these bars ASAP! They look AMAZING!
I love your priorities, that would be the same for me! Gosh these bars look good, that caramel sauce just makes them so indulgent!
My office is like that. Nobody can microwave and make coffee and the same time or the whole thing blows. I can’t count how many times I was writing up a last-minute quiz before class when my computer shut off. Wiring sucks.
But hey, it gave you an excuse to drink wine and eat magic bars. Have I mentioned that I don’t believe in diets anyway? So that’s perfect. And these are the perfect fall magic bar!
