    Apple bar receipe

    I am looking for an apple bar receipe
    that was in TOH a couple of years ago. It was in the clip and keep
    section with other bar receipes such
    as frosted raspberry bars, blueberry
    lattice bars, Hone pecan triangeles.
    This was a great receipe and I have
    lost mine. Thanks

    APPLE PIE SQUARES

    4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. baking powder
    1 cup shortening
    4 egg yolks
    2 Tbls. lemon juice
    8 to 10 tbsp cold water

    FILLING
    7 cups finely chopped apples
    2 cups sugar
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    2 tsp. cinnamon
    dash ground nutmeg

    ICING/GLAZE
    1 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 Tbls. milk
    1 Tbls. lemon juice

    In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In small bowl, whisk egg yolks, lemon juice and water; gradually add to flour mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide in half. Chill for 30 minutes.
    Roll out one portion of dough between two large sheets of waxed paper into a 17 x 12 inch rectangle. Transfer to an ungreased 15 x 10 x 1 baking pan. Press pastry onto the bottom and up the sides of pan; trim pastry even with top edge.
    In a bowl, toss the apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; spread over crust. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pan; place over filling. Trim edges; brush edges between pastry with water or milk; pinch to seal. Cut slits in top. Bake at 375º for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Combine glaze ingredients until smooth; drizzle over bars before cutting. Yield: about 2 dozen
