Easy Dessert Fritters

Sweet apple fritters used to be the treat we would get at the state fair. Warm, crispy, filled with chunks of apples, and coated in the sweet glaze, they taste like donuts! Now, I make them from scratch in my own kitchen, any time the craving hits. Why? Because they are super easy to make and all I need are pantry staples and apples. That’s it!

If you like no-bake desserts with layers, you may also like my Cherry Delight or the Pumpkin Lush Dessert. Perfect for parties and cookouts!

Of course, technically, this is not a salad. Not even close. It’s a dessert! A retro dessert, similar to Cherry Delight, Ambrosia Salad, and any desserts that include fruit, whipped topping, and a layer of crunch.

It’s also a fun and festive treat to make for Spring, Summer, or any time of the year, really. This Strawberry Pretzel Salad has three layers, each made with 3 ingredients. All of them typical of retro desserts: cool whip, cream cheese, jello, pretzels.
