Instructions:

Prepare a baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring that the paper hangs over the edges for easy removal later.

In a microwave-safe bowl or over indirect heat, combine the mini marshmallows, white chocolate chips, and melted butter.

Melt the mixture until it's smooth and well combined. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Alternatively, use a double boiler method by placing a heat-proof bowl over a pot of boiling water.

Once melted, carefully fold in the halved gumdrops until they're evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Pour the nougat mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the surface flat with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully set.

Once set, lift the nougat out of the dish using the parchment paper and cut into bars using a sharp knife. These nougat bars are made with just four ingredients, making them quick and easy to prepare.

For the best results when making these nougat bars, consider using high-quality ingredients, especially the chocolate and nougat.

Avoid overmixing the nougat mixture to maintain a pleasant texture. Additionally, letting the nougat cool completely before cutting will yield neater slices.

For easier cutting, refrigerate the bars again before slicing. Finally, feel free to get creative with your mix-ins—different candies, nuts, or dried fruits can elevate your nougat bars to a whole new level! Enjoy!
