Snicker Salad – Sweet, Salty & Packed with Protein
If you’ve been around here for a while, you know I love taking classic flavors and putting a little spin on them. Today’s dish hits that sweet spot. We’re talking about Snicker apple salad—a fun, tasty, and satisfying treat. This salad combines all the flavors of a Snickers candy bar with fresh, protein-rich ingredients. Now, if you haven’t heard of a snicker candy bar salad recipe before, let’s break it down. Traditionally, people make this dessert salad with chopped apples, whipped topping, instant vanilla pudding mix, and Snickers bars.
I wanted to give that nostalgic combo a fresh update—keeping all the chocolate, peanut, and caramel magic but with a lighter, more energizing twist. By packing in protein, using natural sweeteners, and keeping it just as fun to eat, this version delivers all the indulgence without the sluggish feeling. Trust me, you’ll want to whip this up ASAP!
What is Snicker Salad?
If you’re skeptical about the idea of a snicker apple salad, I get it. Salad? Candy bars? How does that even work?
But this is where things get exciting—this isn’t your leafy green kind of salad. Instead, it’s a chopped apple-based dish that eats like a dessert but fuels your body like a solid snack. It’s crunchy, creamy, sweet, salty, and completely addictive.
In this version, we’re using high-protein Greek yogurt and natural peanut butter instead of whipped topping and pudding.
This gives a rich, creamy texture without adding extra sugar. We’re channeling the best parts of a Snickers bar! This includes crunchy peanuts, mini chocolate chips, and a drizzle of Rabeko sugar-free caramel sauce to bring it all together.
The result? A snicker candy bar salad that tastes just like the original, but with way more protein and better-for-you ingredients.
