Steps:
- 1. Dice the apples into small pieces and set aside.
- 2. Combine the eggs, butter and slowly add powdered sugar in batches. Beat with a hand mixer for 3-5 minutes. Fold in cool whip and mix well.
- 3. Add remaining ingredients except peanuts and refrigerate for several hours, preferably over night.
- 4. Chop the roasted peanuts up and sprinkle over the salad right before you serve it.
- 5. **This salad only stays good for a two days at most in the refrigerator. It is best to sprinkle the chopped nuts on before you serve it or they will get soft**
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp hold their shape well in the salad and provide a nice contrast to the sweet caramel dressing.
- Slice the apples thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing more easily and make them easier to eat.
- Make the caramel dressing ahead of time: This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Use a good quality caramel: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dressing.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little dressing goes a long way. You can always add more if needed.
- Serve the salad immediately: The apples will start to brown if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Caramel apple salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for fall. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your salad sweet, tart, or somewhere in between, this recipe has you covered. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying salad, give caramel apple salad a try.
