Taffy Apple Salad is a side dish that can also be a dessert, with miniature marshmallows, pineapple chunks, diced apples and bite sized pieces of Snickers candy bar mixed into a pineapple whipped topping.

One of my former co-workers, and friend, from when we lived in Illinois, often shared with me recipe ideas that at first sounded like a strange concoction, but ended up as a favorite.  She is responsible for the Chinese Sundaes (or Hawaiian Haystacks), Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Chips (not yet on the blog) and also this Taffy Apple Salad.

Gosh, I miss you and your food, Kristi!

But, hey, I can miss her all I want and still eat her food!  😉  You will want to try this either as a side at a potluck, or a dessert for dinner guests.  And, although it's a mix of pineapples and diced apples with Snickers, marshmallows and Cool Whip, it's healthy because "salad" is in the title, right? 😉

Snickers Bar Taffy Apple Salad

Apples, marshmallows, pineapple chunks and bites of Snickers candy bars gelled into a pineapple whipped cream topping.
Prep Time5 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Servings: 8 -10 servings
Author: Nikki Gladd

Ingredients

  • 1 (20 oz.) can pineapple chunks, drain and save juice
  • 2 ½ cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 egg , lightly beaten
  • 1 Tablespoon flour
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons white vinegar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 to 1 ½ cups chopped Snickers candy bars
  • 8 oz . Cool Whip
  • 1 green apple (I use Granny Smith), unpeeled, cored and diced
  • 1 red apple , unpeeled, cored and diced

Instructions

One day before serving:

  • Drain the pineapple chunks and save the juice. In a large bowl, toss together the pineapple chunks and marshmallows. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the reserved juice, egg, flour, vinegar and sugar. Cook over medium low heat until thickened like a custard. Transfer to a container, cover and chill overnight.

The day of serving:

  • The next day (day of serving), combine the custard with the pineapples and marshmallows. Stir in the remaining ingredients and chill until served.
  • Although I have eaten leftovers of this one day later, this is best the day it's made.
