  teaspoons mixture for brushing top. Place 1 sheet of
  phyllo dough on a work surface; brush lightly with some
  of the butter mixture. (Keep remaining remaining phyllo

  each layer with some of the butter mixture. Spread apple
  mixture over phyllo to within 2 in. of 1 long side.
  
  Fold the short edges over filling. Roll up jelly-roll

  Transfer to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
  Brush with reserved butter mixture; sprinkle with
  remaining 2 teaspoons sugar. With a sharp knife, cut
  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.
