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

Can you freeze magic bars?

Yes you can freeze them in an airtight container for up to a month!

Why are my magic bars falling apart?

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.

Do apple magic bars need to be refrigerated?

They don’t need to be, but you can keep them fresh. Make sure they are stored in an airtight container.

  4. Honestly, I don’t even know how you’re functioning. It’s like worse than being without a bathroom. Well, maybe not quite. HA. I’m still holding onto summer, obvi. BUT I wouldn’t turn one or two of these down if you just happen to show up at my door with them. Mkay?
