What is a nougat candy?

Nougat candy is made from sugar that has been aerated and is fluffy. Paired with nuts and chocolate, it’s a popular dessert any time of year, especially around the holidays.

Tips For Cutting Candy Nougat 

• Use a sharp kitchen knife that is serrated. This will allow it to grab onto the chocolate and will help prevent it from breaking.
• It’s fine to add some nonstick spray or oil to the knife to prevent sticking.
• Warm the knife before you start by running it under really hot water. Then dry well before you begin cutting the nougat.

Ingredients:

• Mini marshmallows
• Butter melted
• Red and green gumdrops 
• White chocolate chips

How to make 4 Ingredient Nougat Bars:

Step 1. Cut the gumdrop candies in half. 

Step 2. Layer parchment paper inside a baking dish, with the paper hanging up over the edges. 

Step 3. Bring a pot of water to a boil on the stove. 

Step 4. Place a heat-proof bowl or dish on top of the pot of boiling water. 

Step 5. Add the butter, mini marshmallows, and white chocolate chips to the boil or dish. 

Step 6. Melt the mixture over the indirect heat of the boiling water until everything is melted and well combined. 

Step 7. Let cool slightly. 

Step 8. Fold the gumdrops into the marshmallow mixture. 

Step 9. Layer the mixture into the baking dish, using a piece of parchment paper to smooth the surface out flat. 

Step 10. Let rest overnight to set. 

Step 11. Lift the edges of the parchment paper to remove the mixture from the baking dish. 

Step 12. Slice into bars and serve.

Easy Nougat Bars Tips

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when you’re making Easy Nougat Bars:

• Use high-quality nougat and chocolate for the best flavor.
• Don’t overmix the nougat mixture; it should be just combined.
• Make sure to let the nougat cool completely before adding the chocolate layer.
• If your nougat is too thick, you can microwave it for a few seconds to soften it up.
• Allow the nougat bars to set in the refrigerator before cutting into them – this will make them easier to cut.
• To get clean cuts, use a sharp knife and wipe it in between each slice with a damp paper towel.

With these tips in mind, you’ll be able to make nougat candy bars that are just as delicious as the store-bought kind! Enjoy!
