Classic Christmas Treats
These Gumdrop Nougat Candies taste like nostalgia and Christmas’ past. And I love them. They’re sweet, soft, chewy and so delicious. And very easy to make. Create a batch and share them with friends, give them as gifts, and make sure to have them on your holiday treat plate!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 12 oz (1 bag) white chocolate chips
- 10 oz (1 bag) mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped red and green gumdrops or chewy candy
Instructions
Step 1: Prep Dish & Melt Ingredients
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, white chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
Step 2: Add Candy
Let the mixture cool for about a minute, then gently fold in the chopped gumdrops or other colorful chewy candies.
Step 3: Chill
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared dish using a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 4: Slice & Store
Lift the candy from the dish using the parchment paper, remove the paper, and cut into bite-sized pieces. Store in an airtight container for best freshness.
