Caramel Apple Dessert with Snickers (Print version)

A creamy no-bake caramel apple dessert with Snickers, tart apples, vanilla pudding, whipped topping, and a caramel drizzle.

# Ingredients:

For the creamy base

01 - 1 1/2 cups (360 ml) cold milk
02 - 1 box (3.4 oz or 96 g) instant vanilla pudding mix
03 - 8 oz (225 g) whipped topping, thawed

For the apples and candy

04 - 5 medium Granny Smith apples, cored and chopped
05 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
06 - 6 full-size Snickers bars, chopped, divided
07 - 1/3 cup (110 g) caramel sauce, plus more for serving if desired

# Instructions:

01 - Whisk the cold milk and instant pudding mix in a large bowl for about 2 minutes. Let it stand for 3 minutes so it thickens slightly.
02 - Add the thawed whipped topping and fold with a spatula until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
03 - Core and chop the apples into bite-size pieces. Toss them with lemon juice to slow browning.
04 - Fold the apples and most of the chopped Snickers into the pudding mixture. Keep a few candy pieces for garnish.
05 - Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Drizzle with caramel sauce and scatter the reserved Snickers over the top just before serving.

# Good to know:

01 - Best served the same day it is mixed.
02 - Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
03 - Use labeled gluten-free pudding, whipped topping, candy, and caramel if needed.
