How To Make Easy Nougat Bars for Christmas

Ingredients:

2 tbsp butter

2 (225 gram) bags white chocolate chips

2 (250 gram) bags of mini marshmallows

1 1/2 cups chopped red and green gumdrops

Instructions:

  1. Prepare an 8×8 square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper.

How To Make NO BAKE COOKIE CAKE

No-Bake Cookie Cake takes the classic no-bake cookie and turns it into a cake!

My son’s birthday was a last month. When I asked him what he wanted for dessert on his birthday he said that he wanted a no-bake cookie cake.

I was not sure exactly what he meant so I asked him a few questions.

He said he wanted me to make my no-bake cookie recipe and turn it into a cake.

I have made no-bake cookies into a bar with my no-bake cookie bar recipe but wasn’t sure how it would work as a cake. I had never seen it made into a cake recipe, but I was willing to give it a try.

My daughter has a peanut allergy so instead of using the classic no-bake cookie recipe I used my Peanut Butter Free No-Bake Cookie Recipe.
