About

Candied Salad is both a salad and a dessert, an excuse to refresh with crisp bites of apples and indulge with smooth, creamy pudding. There's a reason it's such a beloved staple of church potlucks and cookouts: folded with airy frozen whipped topping and mixed with crunchy, chocolatey candy bars, Candied Salad is designed to amaze the tastebuds from the first bite to the last bite.
