Ingredients:
- 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream (Cold)
- 1 x 3.4 oz packet Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
- ½ cup Cold Milk (Whole or 2%)
- ¼ cup Powdered (Icing) Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 6 Standard Size Snickers Bars (Approx. 300 g)
- 4 large Crisp Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- ¼ teaspoon Sea Salt
Instructions:
- Chop the Snickers bars into bite-sized pieces (about 1.5 cm/½ inch cubes). Set aside about ¼ cup for garnish.
- Core and chop the apples. Immediately toss the chopped apples with the 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning. Drain any excess liquid.
- In the chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until soft peaks form using the whisk attachment of your mixer.
- In a separate small bowl, quickly whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and the cold milk until just combined; it will become thick very quickly.
- Gently fold the activated pudding mixture into the soft-peak whipped cream using a rubber spatula until stabilized and no streaks of pudding remain.
- Gently fold the chopped, lemon-tossed apples, the majority of the chopped Snickers bars, and the pinch of sea salt into the stabilized cream base.
- Fold until just combined. Avoid overmixing, which will deflate the cream and make the salad watery.
- Transfer the Snicker Salad to a serving dish and cover tightly with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for a minimum of 60 minutes. This chilling time allows the pudding to fully set and the flavors to marry properly.
- Just before serving, top the salad with the reserved chopped Snickers pieces and serve immediately.
