 each layer with some of the butter mixture. Spread apple
 mixture over phyllo to within 2 in. of 1 long side.

 Transfer to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
 Brush with reserved butter mixture; sprinkle with

 diagonal slits in top of strudel.

 Bake until golden brown, 35-40 minutes. Cool on a wire
 rack. If desired, dust with confectioners' sugar before
 serving.
