Spray a 9"x13" baking dish with a vegetable spray

In a large bowl, cut butter into cookie mix and blend with a pastry blender or 2 forks
Stir in the egg
Stir in Hatch Chiles
Reserve 1/2 C of this mixture

Press remaining mixture into the pan
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes

Sprinkle apples over the crust

In a small bowl, mix caramel topping with flour
Drizzle over apples

Spread reserved crumbs over apples
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes
