Instructions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Preparation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prep Pan:<\/strong> Line an $8 \\times 8 \\text{ inch}$ ($20 \\times 20 \\text{ cm}$) baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Combine:<\/strong> Place your chosen <strong>nuts\/fruit\/cereal<\/strong> and the <strong>powdered milk<\/strong> in a large, clean bowl. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Melting the Base<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Melt Butter:<\/strong> In a large saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt the <strong>butter<\/strong> over medium-low heat (or in the microwave) until fully liquid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Melt Marshmallows:<\/strong> Add the <strong>mini marshmallows<\/strong> to the melted butter. Continue stirring over low heat until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth. Remove immediately from the heat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Combining and Setting<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mix Quickly:<\/strong> Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the prepared <strong>powdered milk\/nut<\/strong> mixture in the large bowl.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fold:<\/strong> Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix quickly and thoroughly until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the sticky marshmallow base.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Press:<\/strong> Transfer the nougat mixture immediately into the prepared pan. The mixture is very sticky, so use another piece of lightly greased parchment paper or a greased spatula to press it firmly and evenly into the pan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cool:<\/strong> Let the nougat cool and set completely at room temperature for <strong>at least $2$ hours<\/strong>, or chill in the refrigerator for $1$ hour for faster setting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Cutting and Serving<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cut:<\/strong> Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the nougat block out of the pan. Cut into small squares or bars using a sharp, lightly oiled knife.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy your chewy, simple nougat bars!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Would you like a recipe for a slightly more traditional <strong>Italian Torrone<\/strong> (Nougat) that uses egg whites?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That sounds like a wonderfully simple and quick recipe!
