Categories     Candies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 c granulated sugar
3/4 c light corn syrup
3/4 c water
1/8 tsp salt
3 egg whites
1/3 c semi sweet chocolate chips
2 bag(s) milk chocolate chips (12 -ounce bags)

Steps:

  • 1. In a large sauce pan over medium heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt.
  • 2. Heat, stirring, to boiling, then continue to cook using a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature.
  • 3. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and form peaks. Don't use a plastic bowl for this.
  • 4. When the sugar solution comes to 270 degrees F, or the soft−crack stage, remove from the heat and pour the mixture in thin streams into the egg whites, blending completely with a mixer set on low speed.
  • 5. Continue to mix until the candy begins to harden to the consistency of dough. This may take as long as 20 minutes. At this point add the semisweet chocolate chips.
  • 6. Remember that the candy must already be at the consistency of dough when you add the chocolate; the nougat will thicken no more after the chocolate is added.
  • 7. When the chocolate is thoroughly blended and the nougat has thickened, Press it into a greased 9x9−inch pan.
  • 8. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • 9. With a sharp knife, cut the candy in half down the middle of the pan. Then cut across into 7 segments to create a total of 14 bars.
  • 10. Melt the milk chocolate chips in the microwave for 2 minutes on half power, stirring halfway through the heating time. Melt completely, but be careful not to overheat.
  • 11. Resting a bar on a fork dip each bar into the chocolate to coat completely and place on wax paper.
  • 12. Cool until firm at room temperature, 1 to 2 hours. Makes 14 candy bars.
