Hahaha, not only are there a bunch of silly days dedicated to random foods but some days have more than one fake holiday! Today is National Graham Cracker Day and National Apple Turnover Day!

So I was thinking what better way to go along with it than to make something inspired by both? How do you feel about apples and cinnamon stuffed inside cookie bars????

For reals, what do you think? I have all types in my gang when it comes to apple desserts; the ones that like anything and everything, the ones that only like cooked apples but hate cinnamon, the ones that claim to be allergic to all fruits, those that only like raw apples, and those that refuse to have an opinion at all.

These cookie bars were also inspired by one of my fam’s favorites, my s’mores cookie bars! Oh my goodness, and as I’m typing this I just realized that I’ve never shared that recipe, what am I doing with my life guys??? (I’ll definitely share it soon though.? )

Ok, but back to the apple bars, they are simply a combination of the most amazingly soft and delicious cookie base and a classic cinnamon apple filling like what you fill a pie with. Of course, then I couldn’t resist the urge to drizzle them with something extra (I’ve got issues) so I added a little bit of icing to dress them up. If you want you could skip that part I guess (#boring), but I’m a frosting fanatic so I seriously cannot.

Alrighty, now that I’ve explained why you have to make these I’m gonna shut up so you can. Oooohhh, and don’t forget to sip something cozy and hot with them like a chai latte or some spiced cider, yum!!!! Enjoy, you guys!

As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.
