1. Prepare Your Pan:
Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) square pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Lightly grease the parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2. Melt the Base:
In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips, butter, and sweetened condensed milk.
Heat over low-medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. Do not overheat to avoid burning.
3. Mix in the Jelly Candies:
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
Gently fold in the jelly candies, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the nougat mixture.
4. Pour and Set:
Pour the nougat mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until fully set.
5. Slice and Serve:
Once set, lift the nougat out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
Slice into bite-sized squares or rectangles with a sharp knife.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
