You call that a salad…

This Snickers Apple Tart is a twist on a southern potluck salad turned into a yummy tart filled with apples and Snickers candy bars.

I went to a potluck in the south once and looked down at a concoction that I had not seen before.

And the woman next to me said “oh that’s salad” and I said “it has Snickers in it” and she said “yes, it’s Snicker Apple Salad”.

Oh well of course.

I put Snickers in all of my salads…don’t you?

I thought she was crazy until I ate it.

Apples.

Good.

Snickers.

Good.

Whipped Cream.

Good.

Back in those days that’s all they put in the salad.

I guess if Waldorf can be a salad and that Strawberry Pretzel thing…this can too.

I have been craving apple pie like crazy lately.

I’ve tried to ignore it almost breaking down and eating a Hostess apple pie when I got gas the other day (don’t judge).

But I clearly needed to feed the apple pie beast within me.

Since I tend to do things with a twist on here I decided to do a twist on the salad into tart form.

Making this Snickers Apple Tart.

And gotta say yum!

Now it’s not apple pie-y apple pie but it’s good all the same.

And hey…it’s salad.

You can eat it whenever. 😀

P.S. It’s a great day to buy my cookbook.

  13. Snickers Salad used to be my go-to potluck item; I thought it was just a MidWest thing! Love the idea of it in tart form! Nom!

  14. This looks really great! It looks so caramel and nutty and candy-barish 🙂

    But the idea of putting snickers in a salad is weird…. and kind of gross… I dunno. Maybe it’s just the image that I’m getting in my head.

  18. Hahaha that’s awesome. Did you mean to quote the show Friends with that “Good.” thing? It reminded me of the episode where Joey eats the bizarre meat trifle Rachel makes by accident.
