Description

A delightful twist on traditional candy recipes, this Fruity Gumdrop Nougat Candy combines sweet flavors and textures, perfect for parties and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 18 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 16 ounces mini marshmallows
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cups Dots Fruity Candy

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Start by lining a 9 x 13-inch pan with wax or parchment paper. Spray the lined paper with nonstick spray.
  2. Melt the Mixture: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, white chocolate chips, and unsalted butter. Microwave for 90 seconds, stirring halfway through.
  3. Check Consistency: If not fully melted, microwave for an additional 30 seconds, stirring until fluffy, thick, and creamy.
  4. Add the Fruitiness: Stir in 2 cups of Dots Fruity Candy until evenly distributed.
  5. Spread the Nougat: Quickly pour the nougat mixture into the prepared pan, pressing down evenly with sprayed hands.
  6. Set the Candy: Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or freeze for 2 hours to let it set.
  7. Cut and Serve: Once set, remove from the pan and cut into 1.5-inch cubes, storing them in the refrigerator between layers of wax or parchment paper.

Notes

Act quickly when handling the nougat mixture as it cools fast. Store the candies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
