Apple Crisp (With NILLA Wafers)

I was looking for an easy apple dessert when I came across this recipe.  The fact that it uses NILLA Wagers made it a must-try.  For some reason, I'm obsessed with using these cookies in baking, though usually it's in a crust. The recipe is from Kraft and I found it on multiple places online. The recipe should yield 12 serving of 1/2 cup each... but four of us completely devoured this last night.  Clearly, we weren't able to follow that guideline. 

Ingredients:
  • 4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 c.  packed brown sugar, divided
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1/3 c. oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking) 
  • 1/4 c. (1/2 stick) margarine
  • 25  NILLA Wafers, crushed (about 1 cup crumbs)  
  • Non-dairy topping (i.e. Cool Whip), Whipped Cream, or Ice Cream to use as a topping.

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Toss apples with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp. cinnamon. Spoon into 8- or 9-inch square baking dish.
  3. Combine oats, remaining brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in wafer crumbs and sprinkle mixture over apples.
  4. Bake 30 to 35 min. or until apples are tender.
Enjoy!!
