A delightful and easy recipe for Jelly Nougat Candy that combines fluffy nougat with fruity gummy candies.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 bag (12 oz) white chocolate chips
  • 1 ½ tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups fruit-flavored gummy candies, chopped into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Melt the Nougat Base: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, white chocolate chips, and butter. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
  3. Add Vanilla and Jelly Candies: Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined. Gently fold in the chopped gummy candies, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  4. Spread the Mixture: Pour the nougat mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Press gently to smooth the top.
  5. Chill and Set: Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the nougat is firm enough to slice.
  6. Cut into Pieces: Lift the nougat out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares or rectangles using a sharp knife.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Ensure the gummy candies are chopped into small pieces for even distribution.
  • The nougat can be stored in an airtight container.
  • For variations, try using different flavors of gummy candies.
