Description
Apple Snickers Salad is a delightful no-bake treat that combines the sweetness of apples and Snickers candy bars with a creamy pudding mixture, making it a perfect dessert for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 4 medium Granny Smith apples, cored and diced
- 5 full-size Snickers candy bars, chopped
- 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup cold milk
- 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
- ¼ cup caramel sauce, plus more for drizzling
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, optional
- ½ cup mini marshmallows (optional)
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts (optional)
- Chocolate sauce for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the apples. Wash, core, and dice the apples into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with lemon juice to help prevent browning.
- Make the pudding mixture. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes, until the mixture begins to thicken.
- Fold in the whipped topping. Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding mixture until smooth and creamy.
- Add the apples and Snickers. Stir in the diced apples and most of the chopped Snickers bars. Reserve a little of each for the topping.
- Add the caramel. Gently mix in the caramel sauce, or save it entirely for drizzling over the finished salad.
- Chill. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30–60 minutes to let the flavors come together.
- Garnish and serve. Sprinkle the reserved apples and Snickers over the top. Drizzle with extra caramel sauce and chocolate sauce if desired.
Notes
- For a crunchier texture, add the peanuts just before serving.
- This salad can be made a few hours in advance, but it’s best served fresh.
- Feel free to customize with other toppings like crushed cookies or additional fruits.
