Steps:

• 1. In a large saucepan 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.
• 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.

HOMEMADE 3 MUSKETEERS CANDY

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water and salt. Heat, stirring, to boiling, then continue to cook, using a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature.
• Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and form peaks. Don't use a plastic bowl for this.
• 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 the mixer set on low speed.
• 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. Remember that the candy must already be at the consistency of dough when you add the chocolate; the nougat won't thicken after the chocolate is added.
• When the chocolate is thoroughly blended and the nougat has thickened, press it into a greased 9x9 inch pan.
• Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• 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.
• Melt the milk chocolate chips and shortening in the microwave for 2 minutes, on half power, stirring halfway through the heating time. Melt completely, but be careful not to overheat.
• Resting a bar on a fork, dip each bar into the chocolate to coat completely and place on wax paper.
• Cool till firm at room temperature, 1-2 hours, or I would try putting in the fridge to set.

3 MUSKETEERS® TRIFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
• Combine brownie mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and water in a bowl until batter is smooth; fold in chocolate chips. Spread batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is dry and the edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool brownies completely. Cut into bite-size pieces.
• Beat cream cheese in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Beat 1/2 cup half-and-half into cream cheese until incorporated. Beat remaining 1 1/2 cups half-and-half and pudding mix into cream cheese mixture on low speed until pudding is well blended, about 2 minutes.
• Beat cream in a separate bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form; fold into pudding mixture.
• Place a layer of brownie bites in the bottom of a trifle bowl or a large bowl with straight sides; top with a layer of pudding mixture and a layer of chocolate-covered nougat bites. Continue layering 2 or 3 more times in the same order with remaining ingredients.
