- Cardamom — Ground cardamom adds a warm and aromatic flavor. If possible, use freshly ground cardamom for the best taste.
- Snickers candy bars — Chop the candy bars into small pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the salad.
- Apples — Choose crisp and slightly tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Pink Lady, for a refreshing contrast to the sweetness of the candy bars.
- Bananas — Use ripe but firm bananas to add a natural sweetness and creamy texture to the salad.
