TAFFY APPLE SALAD



Taffy Apple Salad image

This is a really great recipe that I found in a Taste of Home cookbook. Plan a little bit ahead because it is really easy to make but does involve some chilling time. The salted peanuts really contrast nicely with the sweet ingredients. Make your salad pretty by adding some extra peanuts and apple slices to the top or layer it in a clear trifle dish. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. These apples will hold their shape well in the salad and provide a nice contrast to the sweet dressing.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be made up to 2 days in advance. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Don't overcook the apples: The apples should be cooked until they are just tender. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and lose their shape.
  • Add the walnuts and cranberries last: This will prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This salad is best served chilled. It can be made up to 2 hours in advance.

Conclusion:

This taffy apple salad is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste.
