Caramel Apple Butter Bars

Caramel Apple Butter Bars
An excellent treat for crisp autumn days, or any time of the year!
Ingredients:
Crust:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter, softened
Topping:
1 jar Caramel Apple Butter (Pick Your Jar Up At Bonnes Amies)
1 1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and chopped (approximately 1 1/2 apples)
1 cup pecans, chopped

Directions:
Preheat over to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour an 8x8 inch pan.
Using a food processor or a pastry blender, combine flour, powdered sugar and butter. Blend until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Press crust mixture into the bottom of a 8x8-inch or square baking pan, saving 1/3 of mixture for topping.
Sprinkle apple pieces over bottom crust.
Pour Caramel Apple Butter over apples, then top with pecans.
Crumble remainder of topping mixture over apple mixture. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-50 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool and cut into squares.
