Prepare the Whipped Cream:

-
Chop the Apples and Snickers:
- Core and chop the apples into bite-sized pieces, and chop the Snickers bars into small pieces.
-
Combine Everything:

Garnish and Serve:

Notes
- For a healthier version, you can use Greek yogurt or light cream cheese instead of full-fat cream cheese.
- If you're making it nut-free, try swapping Snickers with Milky Way or Rolos.
- Add extra crunch by including granola or chopped pretzels.
- You can also try other fruits like pears, bananas, or grapes instead of apples.
