Homemade Nougat Bars: A Sweet and Chewy Delight

 

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients:
    • Begin by chopping the dried fruits and nuts into small, bite-sized pieces. This ensures they are evenly distributed throughout the nougat and makes the bars easier to cut.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate:
    • In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. You can also melt the chocolate and condensed milk over a double boiler on the stove.
  3. Add Marshmallows and Vanilla:
    • Once the white chocolate is melted and smooth, stir in the mini marshmallows and vanilla extract. The marshmallows will begin to melt slightly, creating a creamy, chewy texture in the nougat.
  4. Mix in Dried Fruits and Nuts:
    • Fold in the chopped dried fruits and nuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the nougat mixture.
  5. Pour into a Pan:
    • Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Pour the nougat mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
  6. Chill and Set:
    • Place the pan in the refrigerator and allow the nougat to chill for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
  7. Cut into Bars:
    • Once the nougat is fully set, remove it from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and slice it into bars or squares of your desired size.
  8. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Your homemade nougat bars are now ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.

ENJOY IT 💛
