I almost named these 7 layer blondies because they are like a cross between my 7 layer bars and a blondie.

Although it’s fall and apple season, one thing I like about apples is that they are available all year long without a substantial difference in quality or sweetness – unlike trying to buy strawberries in MN in the winter.
