Bake for 1 hour, rotating pan halfway through, until the apples are fork-tender and the topping is golden brown. Cool completely in the pan, about 1 to 2 hours
• For the glaze: Combine the maple syrup, butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk or cream in a medium bowl. Whisk until combined and smooth. Once the bars are cool, lift from the pan using the parchment paper overhang and place on a cutting board. Drizzle evenly with the glaze. Cut into squares and serve.
