- Chop five Snickers bars into small fun chunks and set aside one bar for garnishing right before serving.
- Fold diced apples and chopped Snickers bars into the creamy mixture until everything is coated all over nicely.

- Dice reserved apple and Snickers bar, then sprinkle over the top as garnish before serving to your guests.
- Drizzle with optional caramel sauce for extra sweetness and make it look AMAZING for everyone to enjoy!
Notes
- Keep ingredients cold so candy bars stay firm and don't melt into the pudding too fast.
- Make salad up to 4 hours early and add Snickers garnish just before you serve it.
- Store leftovers in a container with a lid in the fridge for up to 2 days for the best taste.
- Toss cut apples with lemon juice if making ahead to stop them from turning brown and yucky.
