How to Make Homemade 3 Musketeers Candy
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, light corn syrup, and water.
- Stir until the sugar dissolves, then clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, without stirring, until it reaches 240°F (115°C) on the candy thermometer – this is the firm-ball stage.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Slowly drizzle the hot sugar syrup into the beaten egg whites while continuing to beat on medium-high speed. Beat until the mixture is completely cool and thick (about 10 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter together in the microwave or double boiler, until smooth and melted.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the nougat mixture until evenly combined.
- Pour the mixture into a greased and parchment-paper-lined 8x8 inch baking pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.
- Once firm, cut into squares and enjoy your homemade 3 Musketeers bars!
