Apple Butterscotch Magic Bars

We really like the regular 7 layer magic bars and when I saw one that included apples I just had to try it.  We had been to the Apple Barn and bought some fresh apples and I found this recipe when looking for new recipes for apples.
This recipe is great because instead of making a 9x13 pan of bars this one makes an 8x8 pan.  Which if you are not having company or taking them somewhere it is great.  And also trying new recipes sometimes you don't want to make a lot just in case.....
Melt 1/4 cup butter
Add to 1 cup graham cracker crumbs.
Mix well.
Spray an 8x8 pan and then dump the crumb mixture into the pan.
Press them down in the bottom and up the sides a little bit.  Press hard so they will stick together and crumble when you cut the bars.
Add 1 cup butterscotch chips and 1/2 cup chocolate chips.  You can use either milk or semi sweet chips.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips.
Then sprinkle the butterscotch chips.
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Sprinkle that on top of the chips.
Peel, core and chop one apple which is about 1 cup.
Toss the apples with 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
Smells so good.
Sprinkle the top with the apples.
Add about 3/4 cup chopped walnuts.
Measure out 8 oz of sweetened condensed milk.  This is over half the can.
Pour the milk on top of the apples. Place in a preheated 350 oven.  Bake for 35-38 minutes or until the center is set.  Let cool completely before cutting.
The baked bars.  The apples smell so good.  A nice addition to the regular magic bars.
