Apple Snicker Salad is a mouthwatering fusion of crisp apples, luscious whipped cream, and the irresistible crunch of Snickers bars. This dessert salad effortlessly combines the freshness of apples with the decadent sweetness of candy bars, creating a treat that’s both refreshing and indulgent.
Start by selecting a variety of apples—crisp and tart varieties work best—to provide a crunchy and juicy base. Dice the apples into bite-sized pieces, ensuring each spoonful is a perfect blend of textures. The addition of lemon juice not only enhances the freshness of the apples but also prevents them from browning.
The star of the show is the Snickers bars, chopped into delightful nuggets that add a caramel and nougat richness to the salad. The candy bars provide a satisfying crunch, turning each bite into a symphony of flavors.
Whipped cream serves as the creamy binder, tying all the ingredients together into a harmonious medley. Its light and airy texture complements the heftier components, creating a balanced and decadent dessert experience.
To assemble the Apple Snicker Salad, gently fold the diced apples and Snickers pieces into the whipped cream. Ensure an even coating to guarantee a consistent flavor profile. For an extra touch of sweetness, some variations include drizzling caramel sauce over the top or adding a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
Chill the salad for at least an hour before serving, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify. Whether enjoyed at picnics, potlucks, or family gatherings, Apple Snicker Salad is sure to be a crowd-pleaser, blending the best of fruity freshness and candy indulgence. Treat yourself and your loved ones to this delightful fusion of flavors for a dessert that’s as fun to make as it is to savor.
I made this for a picnic. Everyone loved it. I use less milk and Granny Smith and Pink Lady apples as well.
Absolutely delicious
I’m sorry but this recipe did not work. It was so soupy. I even let the pudding set up more. Then I did as suggested, if it was soupy, to add more cool whip. It ended up having runny foam on it. It was yucky and no one at the party ate it so I will be throwing away a triple batch! 9 apples, 4 tubs of cool whip, pudding and 18 snicker bars. Ouch! $$ I would suggest trying a small batch ahead of time if you choose this recipe.
I have not made this but it sounds yummy. Just a thought, I would make it with out adding the apples, but slice them up and have on the side just to dip into the pudding mixture, also use graham crackers as a dipping tool, or crush on top. Like I stated just a thought :-)
Idk what I did wrong but mine was all clumpy from the pudding mix. Maybe more milk? More cool whip? Still tastes good, just doesn't look good ?.
I followed the recipe exactly and I wound up with a very runny salad. I did not serve it and the next day it was even more watery. Next time, I’ll make the pudding and let that set up first and then add the other ingredients.
You can't go wrong with these ingredients! Made this for the Super Bowl party and everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. Whoever decided to call this a salad is a dessert lover so I will file this under "Desserts"! As for the recipe I decided to lower the milk to 1/2 cup because I was concerned if there was a lot left over it would get runny from the apples softening. I used a small box of vanilla instant pudding stirring only with a rubber scraper to blend in the milk and then gently folding in the 8 oz of thawed whipped topping. I used six snickers bars, the normal size. You can buy these in one package. If using a long chopping knife you can slice/chop all six bars at once at room temperature. I added the chopped snickers to the filling and let it chill for an hour before adding the chopped apples, using only 5 granny smith apples. Depending on the size of each apple you'll have to judge for yourself how many to add. I chilled the mixture another hour before serving and you could definitely chill longer.
My mother-in law asked me to make this for Thanksgiving. She loved it! It was a big hit with everyone, as well. I added chopped walnuts and substituted the butterscotch pudding with vanilla pudding.
