Caramel Apple Streusel Bars

I could not get Zaar to accept Pillsbury Crescent Recipe Creations refrigerated flaky dough sheet - these are newer in the refrigerated dough section. This recipe is from Pillsbury. A nice, easy and quick recipe for those times you need a dessert in under a hour. We had them plain but would also be nice with ice cream or whipped topping on top.
