Easy Apple Crisp

Occasionally, my family will get a yearning for something sweet.  I don't make dessert every night.  Usually on special occasions.  But once in awhile I'll make a treat to go along with a meal, for no special reason.  It might be cookies or brownies.  In my husband's world it would be something to go with ice cream.  This apple crisp hits the mark.  It is ooey-gooey and super rich.  Super Rich.  As in you need AT LEAST two scoops of ice cream to take the edge off.  And if you're one of those people that likes to lick the cake batter off of the spatula then this is the dessert for you.  It's like an apple pie with a cake batter-flavored crust.  And butter.  Lots of butter.  Try it, but trust me...have a small bowl with extra ice cream.
