I have made this now 3 times. My husband loves it. This time I used 1 pear, 1 granny smith and 1 macintosh and used crushed up heath bar. SOO Good!

I made this with my granddaughters, but we used banana cream pudding, because we had no vanilla pudding. It was delicious!

We've been enjoying a similar recipe since 1995. I use an 8-ounce container of Cool Whip only--no pudding & milk. It's a very quick recipe to make. We have it for Sunday brunch along with bacon/sausage & muffins for a special treat.

Easy and taste like a caramel apple!

Yum yum yum! The combination of ingredients sounded intriguing, so I had to try it. I would never have thought of combining apples and Snickers, but it was delicious. Easy and quick to prepare, too.

Delish! I added more snickers than it called for, just because......... LOL This recipe is a keeper. I suggest making it the day you serve it and not the day before. It gets a little watery if you make it a day ahead.

I have made this and it is very good but it gets runny.

My mom used to make a recipe just like this when we were kids except we always added pineapple chunks or crushed pineapple!

Love how quick and easy this comes together. It's best if eaten within a day or two of mixing it together. Very yummy!

The flavor was pretty good. You really have to watch it when you eat the Snickers because when they are cold, they get pretty hard and I could see where one could break a tooth.

I made this for a bridal shower and received many compliments and recipe requests! I couldn't find a 3.4 oz pudding mix so used a 1.5 oz box. I bought 2 just in case, but the vanilla flavor was very overwhelming. I ended up using 16 oz of frozen whipped topping to make up for this. It made a little extra sauce, so some extra apples and candy bars were good. But after these few adjustments, the flavor was excellent. The left overs lasted a few days in the fridge, too, which surprised me with apples. I can't wait to make this again!

Very good dessert salad !!

It was GREAT! I made when my son had a friend over. I used White chocolate pudding instead of vanilla. At first they didn't even want to try it, but after one taste they kept coming back and filling up their bowls. Now my boys ask me to make it.

This was a hit at a bbq though people had to ask what it was. I added some mini marshmallows to the mix. Next time I think I'll add some oranges and/or grapes too because it seemed like there was more 'sauce' than salad.

My family loves this recipe and we make it often. We usually add grapes and mandarin oranges to the salad!

DELICIOUS! I had bought 4 huge apples but only used 2 in the end and still used the 4 snickers. It was perfect. Gone in no time. Thanks for the recipe.
