1

Heat oven to 350°F. Line 8-inch square pan with cooking parchment paper.
2

Press 9 cookies evenly in bottom of pan. Spoon pie filling evenly over cookie dough. Crumble remaining 3 cookies over pie filling.
3

Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until crumb topping is deep golden brown and edges are bubbly. Remove from oven to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
4

To make caramel drizzle, in medium microwavable bowl, microwave caramels and water on High 30 to 40 seconds or until melted; stir until smooth. Drizzle over cooled bars. Cut into 3 rows by 3 rows.

Other pie filling can be used instead of the apple. You can try blueberry, peach, cherry or whatever you prefer.
Finely chopped walnuts or pecans can be added to the cookie dough crust for a touch of crunch to the bars.
