  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling

  2. In a medium bowl, combine the crumbs, flour, 1/2 cup of the sugar, cocoa, baking soda and cinnamon. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture. Press the remaining mixture into the prepared pan and set aside.
