Key ingredients
To get started, gather the following items:
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1 box vanilla or French vanilla pudding mix
- 3-4 apples, chopped (choose tart or sweet, based on your preference!)
- 1 package Snickers bars, chopped
- 1 cup whipped topping
Feel free to experiment! If you’re out of caramel sauce, chocolate syrup can add a fun twist, while using Greek yogurt in place of whipped topping can give a healthy spin.
