Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 3 medium apples, diced
- 1 cup Snickers bars, chopped
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup whipped topping
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 3 medium apples, 1 cup of chopped Snickers bars, 1 cup of mini marshmallows, 1 cup of whipped topping, 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, and 1/4 cup of caramel sauce.
- Wash the apples thoroughly under cold water. Once clean, core and dice them into bite-sized pieces. You can leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, chopped Snickers bars, mini marshmallows, and chopped pecans. Gently toss these ingredients together until they are evenly mixed.
- In a separate bowl, take the whipped topping and fold it into the apple mixture. Be careful to mix gently to maintain the light and fluffy texture of the whipped topping.
- Once the whipped topping is fully incorporated, drizzle the caramel sauce over the salad. Again, gently fold the mixture to ensure the caramel is distributed evenly without deflating the whipped topping.
- After mixing, taste the salad and adjust the sweetness if desired by adding more caramel sauce or a sprinkle of sugar.
- Transfer the Double Snicker Apple Salad to a serving bowl or individual cups for presentation. You can garnish with additional chopped pecans or a drizzle of caramel sauce on top if desired.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for a short period before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy your delicious and creamy Double Snicker Apple Salad!
Tips
- Apple Selection: Choose crisp, firm apples like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith for the best texture and slight tartness that balances the sweet ingredients.
- Snickers Prep: Freeze the Snickers bars for 10-15 minutes before chopping to make cutting easier and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
- Whipped Topping Technique: Fold the whipped topping gently to maintain its light, airy texture. Overmixing can deflate the cream and make your salad dense.
- Caramel Drizzle: For an extra gourmet touch, use a squeeze bottle or spoon to create beautiful caramel patterns on top of the salad.
- Chilling Time: While you can serve immediately, letting the salad chill for 30 minutes can help the flavors meld together beautifully.
- Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare all ingredients separately and combine just before serving to keep everything fresh and crisp.
- Nut Alternatives: If someone has a nut allergy, you can substitute pecans with toasted coconut flakes for similar crunch.
