Apple Snickers Salad is a tasty dessert salad that’s similar to an ambrosia salad. It’s full of caramel apple goodness with a Snickers surprise. This Snicker salad recipe is perfect to whip up for a party or just as a fun fall dessert. Snickers salad is a sweet, unique dessert, similar to a fruit salad, that’ll be a complete hit with your friends and family. I love caramel and apples together and the added pudding and whipped cream with Snickers pieces throughout… delicious!

Instructions

Chop the apples into 1" pieces and place in a bowl or container with the lemon soda to prevent browning. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together the vanilla pudding mix and milk for 2 minutes until well-thickened.

Gently stir or beat the cool whip into the pudding mixture.

Drain the apples from the lemon soda and place in the pudding mixture. Stir to coat the apples completely.

Drizzle on the caramel sauce, if using (reserving a Tablespoon for drizzling over the final dish).

Stir to combine.

Stir in the chopped Snickers bars.

Refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight to allow flavors to combine.

Drizzle on the remaining caramel sauce just before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Apple Prep Perfection 🍎
Dice Granny Smith apples immediately before mixing and toss with a splash of lemon soda to prevent browning and add a subtle tangy brightness.
Snickers Cutting Technique 🍫
Freeze Snickers bars for 10-15 minutes before chopping to ensure clean, precise cuts without crumbling and to maintain distinct candy pieces.
Pudding Mixing Magic 🥣
Whisk the vanilla pudding mix with cold milk until completely smooth to prevent lumps and ensure a creamy, consistent texture throughout the salad.
Chill Factor Optimization 🧊
Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld and create a perfectly chilled, cohesive dessert experience.
Caramel Drizzle Technique 🍯
Warm the caramel sauce slightly and use a squeeze bottle or spoon to create elegant, controlled drizzles that enhance both presentation and flavor distribution.
