In a heavy-bottom saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, egg and juice from pineapple.  Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens (about 5 minutes).  Cool.  Stir in Cool Whip.  In a large bowl, mix apples, pineapple chunks, marshmallows and peanuts.  Toss with sauce that was made on the stove.  Refrigerate 2-3 hours before serving.
