How do I make the base for this slice?
December 16th, 2009 | by admin |I found a recipe for caramel apple slice http://www.anniesrecipes.com/Kitchen/cake_cookie_bar_recipes/caramel_apple_squares_recipe.htm
It calls for butter, but does not mention it in the method. I assume that it was left out the list of ingredients for the base. (the slice should be base, filling, base) Should I just mix it in, or soften or melt it first?
CORRECTED RECIPE
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. MELT BUTTER. In large bowl mix flour, oats, brown sugar, soda, salt, and MELTED BUTTER. Reserve 1 1/2 cup crumb mixture for topping. Press the remaining crumb mixture into 9 x 13 pan. Bake 15 minutes. Add nuts to the crumbs for the topping. Melt milk and caramels. Stir until smooth. Spoon the filling over crust. Top with caramel milk mixture and top with crumb nut mixture. Bake 20 minutes.

Wrong. Do not melt the butter. When the recipe calls for "crumb" topping, it wants you to cut the butter in to the mixture then reserve part of it, pressing the other into the bottom of the pan. You would melt the butter for a batter type recipe, not a crumb recipe.
