# Expert Advice:

01 -

It's indulgent without requiring any baking skills or fancy kitchen tools.
People at potlucks always ask for the recipe—it's become my secret weapon.
You can have it ready in 15 minutes flat, yet it tastes like you spent hours on it.

02 -

Don't assemble this hours ahead; the apples will brown and the texture will turn mushy if they sit too long in the creamy mixture.
A whisk is your friend for the pudding—a fork just doesn't get the lumps out fast enough.

03 -

Chop your Snickers bars right before mixing so they don't soften or get sticky—cold bars are easier to work with.
Use a cold bowl straight from the fridge to keep everything as cold as possible while you're assembling.
