3.4oz(96g)small box instant coconut pudding mix, (or vanilla if you prefer that instead, but I highly recommend the coconut)
1 ¼cups(296ml)COLD 2% milk
4oz(113g)light cool whip, (half of an 8oz tub; or about 1 ½ cups if using fresh sweetened whipped cream)
3 to 4medium apples, diced (I love Pink Lady apples! Use 3 apples if you want slightly more pudding than filling.)
8.5oz(241g)package Keebler Coconut Dreams or Girl Scout Samoas, (18 cookies)
Instructions
Whisk pudding mix and COLD milk in a large bowl. Allow to rest for 5 minutes until firm. Fold in cool whip.
Dice apples and fold them into the pudding mixture.
Cut cookies into eighths or small chunks and add them to the apple salad. Fold until incorporated. Serve immediately for crunchy cookie chunks or refrigerate for later if you want soft cookie bits.
*OPTIONAL: Drizzle the top of the salad with caramel right before serving for added deliciousness!
