Caramel apple salad actually tastes like a caramel apple but is not as messy to eat. It takes a bit of time to chop the apples and peanuts also to whip the whipping cream, but it is well worth all that chopping and whipping.Pudding salads and jello salads have always been a big thing with my family, especially around the holidays. Still, to this day when there is ever a family gathering, you will find at least one salad that contains pudding or jello along with cool whip, fruit, and maybe some marshmallows.

It seriously has been a tradition for many years. The kids in the family always load their plates up with these salads, they totally love them. And even the adults enjoy them.

How about you do you like these salads or maybe you’re not into these at all?

So with this caramel apple salad, I am following the tradition that has been in my family for ages, but with a bit of a twist. There is no cool whip in this recipe. Yeah, I wanted to go with something homemade. The cream cheese and the pudding hold the whipped cream together. I love the salty peanuts with the sweetness of the whipped cream and the pudding.

It makes a great fall fruit salad, but don’t worry you can serve it all year long. Your family is going to love it.

    This certainly puts the decadent in Apples! Sounds much easier to eat than a caramel apple on a stick. I had how the caramel gets stuck in my teeth, but that isn’t a problem in this salad!

    What a fun idea! When I first saw salad, I was a little confused as I was expected something savory…but a sweet salad is perfect for Fall when it’s stuffed with caramel and apples. Plus, as you mentioned, this one would be way easier to eat than an actual caramel apple! 🙂
