Christmas Gumdrop Candy (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 450g white chocolate chips.
02 - 500g mini marshmallows.
03 - 1 1/2 cups gumdrops, chopped.
04 - 2 tablespoons butter.

# Instructions:

01 - Cover an 8x8-inch square dish fully with parchment, leaving some extra at the edges so you can lift it out later.
02 - Cut up all the gumdrops into halves and set them to the side.
03 - Place a heat-safe bowl on top of a pot with gently simmering water to make a double boiler.
04 - Throw the butter, white chocolate chips, and marshmallows into the bowl over the simmering water.
05 - Keep stirring the mixture nonstop until it's totally melted and creamy.
06 - Keep an eye on the temperature so the ingredients don’t cook—just melt them down gently.
07 - Carefully remove the bowl once everything’s melted and combined.
08 - Let the mixture sit and cool for around 2 minutes.
09 - Mix the chopped gumdrops into the melted mixture until they’re spread out evenly.
10 - Pour all of the mixture into the prepared pan.
11 - Use parchment paper that’s lightly greased to press the mixture into the pan evenly.
12 - Press the top gently with greased parchment to smooth the surface.
13 - Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, or leave it overnight to let it set completely.
14 - Once solid, slice the nougat into 60 small, bite-sized chunks.
15 - Layer the pieces with parchment in between if stacking them for storage.
