Cinnamon Apple Streusel Bars

We usually make these around Christmas and they are so good!

1 1/4 c. graham cracker crumbs
1 1/4 c. flour
3/4 c. packed brown sugar (divided)
1/4 c. sugar
1 t. cinnamon
3/4 c. butter, melted
2 c. peeled and chopped apples (about 2 medium apples)

Preheat oven to 350. Grease 13X9 inch baking pan. Combine graham cracker crumbs, flour, 1/2 c. brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, and butter in large bowl until well blended; reserve 1 cup of mixture. Press remaining crumb mixture into bottom of pan. Bake 8 minutes. Remove from oven; set aside.

Toss apples with remaining 1/4 c. brown sugar in medium bowl until brown sugar is dissolved; arrange apples over baked crust. Sprinkle reserved 1 c. crumb mixture over filling. Bake 30 to 35 minutes more or until apples are tender. Remove pan and cool completely. Drizzle with glaze (listed below). Cut into bars. Makes 3 dozen bars.

Glaze
Combine 1/2 c. powdered sugar and 1 T milk in small bowl until well blended.
