Ingredients
Scale
For the Salad:
- 6 Granny Smith apples, cored and chopped
- 6 full-size Snickers bars, chopped
- 1 (8 oz) container of whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
For the Dressing:
- 1 (3.4 oz) package of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, prepare the dressing: Whisk together the instant pudding mix and milk until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Combine the salad: Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined. Add the chopped apples and Snickers bars, stirring to coat everything evenly with the creamy mixture.
- Finish the salad: Drizzle caramel sauce over the top and gently fold again to incorporate. Transfer to a serving dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Serve: Just before serving, drizzle with additional caramel sauce and sprinkle with chopped peanuts if desired.
Notes
- You can use any variety of apples, but tart apples like Granny Smith balance the sweetness best.
- For a lighter version, use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping.
