🔑 Notes & Tips
- For extra gooeyness, swirl more caramel into the apple pie filling before layering.
- Don’t worry if the dough doesn’t fully cover the filling — it will spread as it bakes.
- This dessert is best served warm, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated.
🌟 Variations
- Berry Twist: Swap apple pie filling for blueberry or cherry pie filling.
- Nutty Topping: Add ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts before baking for crunch.
- Homemade Dough: Use homemade snickerdoodle cookie dough instead of mix for a from-scratch version.
❄️ Storage
- Fridge: Store covered for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20–30 seconds per slice.
- Freezer: Freeze in airtight containers up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in fridge and warm before serving.
