Candy Bar Apple Salad

1-1/2 cups cold 2% milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
4 large apples, chopped (about 6 cups)
4 Snickers candy bars (2.07 ounces each), cut into 1/2-inch pieces

In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in whipped topping. Fold in apples and candy bars. Refrigerate until serving. Makes 12 servings (3/4 cup each).

Note: Using crisp, tart apples like Granny Smiths helps to balance the sweetness. For a pretty presentation and a bit of extra crunch, sprinkle chopped peanuts over the top.
