Dubai Chocolate Bar Watergate Salad
This Dubai chocolate bar Watergate salad is typical of Midwestern “dessert” salads—sweet and fluffy, with no lettuce to be found. As a kid growing up in Kansas, the pistachio-pudding based Watergate salad was a staple with Easter ham, at baby showers and potlucks. This recipe melds Watergate salad with trending Dubai Chocolate bar flavors to create a new candy bar salad for potlucks and holidays. There’s an easy candy bar crunch made from a surprising cereal ingredient and mini chocolate chips.
