Ingredients
Scale
½ cup cold water
1 tbsp gelatin
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup corn syrup
Pinch of salt
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup nut butter (almond, peanut, sunflower, etc.)
¼ cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk (dairy or non-dairy)
½ tsp vanilla extract
300 g milk or dark chocolate, melted
1 tsp coconut oil (optional)
Instructions
Bloom gelatin in cold water for 10 minutes. Heat sugar, corn syrup, and salt to 115°C (240°F). Slowly stream syrup into gelatin while beating on high. Add vanilla and whip 8–10 minutes until glossy and fluffy. Spread in a parchment-lined square dish. Let set 4 hours.
Mix nut butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and thick. Press flat and chill slightly.
Cut marshmallow into squares. Top each with a small nougat disc and press gently together. Freeze 15 minutes for easy dipping.
Melt chocolate (with coconut oil if using). Dip each bite completely, place on lined tray, and let set.
Notes
Serve in mini cupcake liners for a candy-shop look.
Add crushed nuts or flaky salt on top before the chocolate sets.
Pack in festive bags for holiday gifting.
Use a very sharp knife dusted with powdered sugar to cut the marshmallow.
Keep bites chilled while dipping for the cleanest coating.
Add caramel between layers for a “3-layer candy bar” effect.
