Description

Midwestern charm shines through this Snickers Salad, blending creamy pudding, crisp apples, and chopped candy bars into a nostalgic dessert. Sweet memories and comfort combine in this playful treat you’ll savor with pure delight.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 4 large apples, chopped (about 6 cups)
  • 4 Snickers candy bars (1.86 ounces each), cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Dairy Ingredients:

  • 11/2 cups (360 milliliters) cold 2% milk
  • 1 carton (8 ounces / 226 grams) frozen whipped topping, thawed

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 package (3.4 ounces / 96 grams) instant vanilla pudding mix

Instructions

  1. Whisk milk and pudding mix vigorously in a spacious mixing vessel for precisely 2 minutes, ensuring a smooth, lump-free consistency.
  2. Allow the pudding mixture to rest for 2 minutes, permitting it to achieve a soft, creamy texture.
  3. Incorporate the thawed whipped topping with a delicate folding motion, creating a light and airy base.
  4. Introduce finely diced apples and crushed Snickers candy pieces into the pudding mixture, distributing them evenly throughout.
  5. Gently blend all ingredients until thoroughly integrated, ensuring each spoonful contains a harmonious mix of flavors and textures.
  6. Transfer the dessert to a sealed container and chill in the refrigerator until the moment of serving, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify.

Notes

  • Opt for crisp, tart apples like Granny Smith to balance the sweetness of the pudding and candy.
  • Chop apples just before adding to prevent browning and maintain fresh crunch.
  • Consider using low-fat milk and sugar-free pudding mix for a lighter dessert option.
  • Customize by swapping Snickers with other chopped candy bars like Milky Way or Twix for variety.
