Ingredients

• 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• pinch of kosher salt
• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Directions

• For the blondies, line a 9inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Spray with baking spray and press paper to sides of pan. Set aside. In a small bow, mix filling ingredients together with a fork. Set aside. In a large bowl, mix brown sugar with melted butter until smooth. Add egg, vanilla, salt and flour. Pour into bottom of prepared pan. Top with apple filling. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely before frosting. For the frosting, beat butter until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Add powdered sugar, caramel and heavy cream. Beat an additional 3-4 minutes until desired consistency. Remove parchment paper from pan and place blondies on a large platter (or cutting board). Frost bars and sprinkle with remaining toffee bits. Cut into large squares, then into triangles. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. ENJOY.
