Ingredients

1 pastry for a 9-inch double-crust pie, divided
10 apples - peeled, cored, and sliced
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
10 individually wrapped caramels, unwrapped
3 tablespoons butter, sliced
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or more as needed

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish with pastry for 1 1/2 pie shells, cutting the pastry to fit and filling gaps as necessary.
Stir apples, sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a large bowl to coat the apple slices. Layer apple mixture over pie crust. Arrange caramels and butter slices on top of apple mixture.
Cut remaining pie pastry into 1- to 2-inch pieces; arrange atop the caramels and butter.
Bake in preheated oven until just beginning to brown, about 1 hour.
Cool in baking dish on a wire rack for 30 minutes, cut into bars.
Beat milk and confectioner's sugar together in a small bowl; drizzle over bars.
