Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 4 medium Granny Smith apples, diced
Dessert Mix
- 4 Snickers bars, chopped into small pieces
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping
- 1 (5.1 oz) package vanilla instant pudding mix
- 1 cup milk
Optional
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (optional, to prevent apples from browning)
Instructions
- Prepare pudding base: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the vanilla instant pudding mix and milk until the mixture is smooth and thickened. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the pudding to firm up properly.
- Incorporate whipped topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding mixture until fully combined, creating a light and creamy base for the salad.
- Add fruits and candy: Add the diced Granny Smith apples and chopped Snickers bars into the bowl. Optionally, add lemon juice to prevent the apples from browning. Gently stir everything together to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Chill the salad: Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve the Snicker Apple Salad chilled for a refreshing and sweet dessert experience.
Notes
- Using lemon juice helps prevent apples from browning, but it’s optional.
- For best results, make the salad a few hours ahead to let flavors meld well.
- You can substitute the whipped topping with homemade whipped cream if preferred.
- For a variation, try adding chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
