4.9 from 110 reviews

A quick and indulgent Snickers Apple Salad combining crisp Granny Smith apples with creamy butterscotch pudding, whipped topping, and chunks of Snickers candy bars, all drizzled with caramel sauce for a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors.

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″ pieces (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish)
  • 6 full-size Snickers Candy Bars, cut into 1/2″ pieces (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish)

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pudding Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the instant butterscotch pudding mix with milk. Whisk thoroughly until smooth and well blended. Then, gently fold in the Cool Whip until everything is evenly combined, creating a creamy base.
  2. Add Apples and Snickers: Carefully fold the diced Granny Smith apples and Snickers bar pieces into the pudding mixture. Make sure they are evenly distributed without crushing the candy or apples. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve, allowing flavors to meld.
  3. Serve the Salad: Just before serving, gently stir the salad again to mix any settled ingredients. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, drizzle caramel sauce over the top, and garnish with the reserved apple and Snickers pieces for added texture and presentation. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • For best texture, use fresh Granny Smith apples and store the salad chilled until serving.
  • Substitute Cool Whip with fresh whipped cream for a more natural taste.
  • This salad is best consumed within 24 hours of preparation to maintain the crunch of the apples and candy bars.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of caramel sauce based on your sweetness preference.
