Place apples in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish.

 

In a heavy saucepan or microwave, melt 25 caramels with 2 Tbs. milk, stirring often; drizzle over apples.

 

In a bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, walnuts, salt and cinnamon; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apples.

​

Bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan or microwave, melt remaining caramels with the remaining milk, stirring often until smooth. Drizzle over dessert and ice cream if desired.
