Be careful when handling hot ingredients and sharp kitchen tools.

1

Prepare the Nougat Base

In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined and smooth.

2

Add the Nightmare Flavor

Gradually mix in the purple food coloring and black licorice extract. Keep adding until you achieve your desired spooky shade and hauntingly delicious taste.

3

Fold in the Spooky Add-ins

Gently fold in the chopped Halloween candies, crushed chocolate cookies, and miniature marshmallows. Make sure they're evenly distributed throughout the nougat.

4

Shape the Bars

Transfer the nougat mixture onto a parchment-lined baking dish. Use your hands or a spatula to press it evenly into the dish. Smooth out the top for a polished finish.

5

Chill and Set

Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and let the bars chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm. This will help the nougat set and hold its shape.

6

Cut and Decorate

Once the bars are firm, remove them from the refrigerator. Use a sharp knife to cut them into spooky shapes like bats, ghosts, or pumpkins. Get creative! Then, decorate with edible eyeballs, gummy worms, or any other creepy toppings you desire.
