2. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon; set aside.
3. In a large bowl, mix together melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar with a wooden spoon until smooth.
4. Stir in the eggs, vanilla, and brandy.
5. Blend in the flour mixture until just combined, then stir in the apples.
6. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
7. In a cup or small bowl, stir together the remaining cinnamon and sugar; sprinkle over the top of the bars.
8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in preheated oven; finished bars should spring back when lightly touched. Cool in the pan, and cut into squares.
