Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons butter Used for greasing the dish and to mix into the ingredients.
  • 12 oz white chocolate chips Use high-quality chips for best flavor.
  • 10 oz mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup red and green gumdrops or chewy candy, chopped Can be replaced with dried fruits or nuts for variations.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, white chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows.
  3. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir with a greased spatula. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
  4. Let the melted mixture cool for about 1 minute to thicken slightly.
  5. Gently fold in the chopped red and green gumdrops or chewy candies.
  6. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it evenly with a spatula.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.
Serving
  1. Once chilled and firm, lift the candy out of the dish using the parchment paper. Remove the paper and cut into small, bite-sized pieces.
  2. Serve as is or pair with other treats like cookies and hot chocolate.

Notes

Best when stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. Refrigerate for longer storage, or freeze well-wrapped to prevent freezer burn.
