Cooking : Apple Pie Bars

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shortening
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
1/3 cup milk
1 cup crisp rice cereal
8 cups tart apples - peeled, cored and sliced
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk

Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt; cut in the shortening until crumbly.
Combine egg yolks and milk; gradually add to crumb mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide in half.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 15-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Line a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan with one rectangle; sprinkle with cereal.
Arrange apples over cereal. Combine the sugar, flour and cinnamon; sprinkle over apples. Top with remaining pastry; cut slits in top. Brush with egg whites.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack. In a bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve drizzling consistency. Drizzle over bars. Store in the refrigerator.
