A delightful Snickers Apple Salad that combines the creamy sweetness of butterscotch pudding and Cool Whip with the crisp tartness of Granny Smith apples and the rich flavor of chopped Snickers bars. Perfect as a creamy, sweet side or dessert salad, topped with caramel sauce for an extra indulgent touch.

Ingredients

Scale

Salad Base

  • 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant butterscotch pudding mix
  • 1 cup milk
  • 6 ounces Cool Whip (or whipped cream)

Mix-ins

  • 3 large Granny Smith apples, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish)
  • 6 full-size Snickers Candy Bars, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish)

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pudding mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the instant butterscotch pudding mix and milk. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Fold in the Cool Whip: Gently fold the Cool Whip into the pudding mixture to create a light and creamy base.
  3. Add apples and Snickers pieces: Carefully fold in the diced Granny Smith apples and chopped Snickers bars, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the pudding mixture.
  4. Chill the salad: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Final touch before serving: Just before serving, gently stir the salad to recombine, then transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the top and garnish with the reserved apple and Snickers pieces for an appealing presentation.

Notes

  • Use Granny Smith apples for a tart contrast that balances the sweetness of the dessert.
  • Substitute Cool Whip with freshly whipped cream for a more homemade touch.
  • Reserve some of the apples and Snickers pieces for garnish to add texture and visual appeal.
  • This salad can be prepared a few hours ahead and refrigerated, but fresh garnish adds the best flavor and crunch.
  • For a richer flavor, use caramel sauce with a hint of sea salt.
