This Snickers Apple Salad is really a dessert, not a salad, but no matter what you call it, it is delicious!
I first shared this recipe way back in 2008. At the time my kids were six, eight, and eleven. It was also before my oldest daughter developed her nut allergy.
This Snickers Apple Salad recipe was a favorite dessert, especially during the summer, for my family.
The first time I had this Snickers Apple Salad was when my best friend’s mom made it. That was probably thirty years ago. This was back in the day when recipes like this were called salad, even if they were far from a real salad.
She took this apple salad to family gatherings, church potlucks, picnics, and more. Everyone loved it.
I had not made this salad in years. I think the last time that I made it was back in 2009, right before my oldest daughter developed her nut allergy.
I had not thought about this salad in years, but my daughter and I were going through the old recipes on my site and we came across this recipe.
We decided that we needed to make it again.
And in case you are wondering my oldest daughter no longer lives at home, so Snickers bars are allowed in the house again.
We made this Snickers Apple Salad last week and we remembered why we loved it so much. It is so good. Not exactly healthy, but delicious!
I took new pictures so that I could update my recipe and photos. The old pictures desperately needed to be updated. Since it is summer, I thought it would be fun to share it again.
Again, it isn’t a salad, but if you are looking for a fun dessert this is one your family will probably love.

I would never have thought of putting snickers and apples, along with whipped topping for salad.
Thanks for sharing!

Oh that’s fantastic.. hehe. I miss Cool Whip 🙁
i think we’ll be trying this one out!
My 8 year old is going to love this. I’m hoping my 6 year old will too because he doesn’t eat like fruit salads, but he will eat apples plain. Looks good, I wonder what other candybars would taste like? Good time to use up the halloween candy in a healthy way.
I never would have thought of that! Very original.

I make one similar to this but mix together 1 box of instant vanilla pudding and 1 cup of milk. I add that to 8 ounces of Cool Whip, then the apples and snickers. It is so yummy!!
Oh, yum!! This sounds scrumptious! 😀
