About
Candied Salad is both a salad and a dessert, an excuse to refresh with crisp bites of apples and indulge with smooth, creamy pudding. There's a reason it's such a beloved staple of church potlucks and cookouts: folded with airy frozen whipped topping and mixed with crunchy, chocolatey candy bars, Candied Salad is designed to amaze the tastebuds from the first bite to the last bite.

- 1 (3.4-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 (8-ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 4 large apples, chopped
- 4 chocolate candy bars filled with caramel, nougat, and peanuts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Directions
Step 1 -In a large bowl, whisk the milk and the pudding mix until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Step 2 -Let the pudding mixture stand until it is soft-set, about 2 minutes.
Step 3 -Fold the whipped topping into the pudding mixture.
Step 4 -Fold the apples and the candy bar pieces into the pudding mixture.
Step 5 -Refrigerate the salad in the fridge for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
