A sweet and creamy dessert salad featuring crisp apples, chunks of Snickers candy bars, and a fluffy whipped topping base. Perfect for potlucks, holidays, and backyard barbecues!
1/2cupcaramel sauce (optional, plus more for drizzling)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Let the mixture sit for 2–3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Fold in the whipped topping until fully combined. Be gentle to maintain a light and airy texture.
Wash, core, and chop the apples into bite-sized pieces. For best results, use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts.
Chop the Snickers candy bars into small chunks. Aim for uniform sizes so every bite includes a little bit of everything.
Gently fold the chopped apples and Snickers pieces into the pudding mixture. Stir carefully to avoid crushing the delicate apple pieces or candy chunks.
If desired, drizzle in the caramel sauce and give it a light stir (don’t overmix). Reserve additional caramel sauce for serving.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Just before serving, drizzle with extra caramel sauce if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!
