Description

These are surprisingly close to the real thing, and really easy with only 3 ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Chocolate Chips, Divided
  • 8 ounces, weight Frozen Whipped Topping, Thawed
  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil

Preparation

Line an 8 or 9-inch square pan with wax paper.

In a medium bowl, melt 2 cups of chocolate chips in the microwave at fifty percent power, or use a double boiler. Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat melted chocolate for about 30 seconds. Add the thawed whipped topping to the melted chocolate and beat until well combined and fluffy, 30-60 seconds more. Spread chocolate mixture evenly into prepared pan (if mixture is too stiff, press into pan with lightly dampened hands). Place in freezer for 30 minutes. Remove pan from freezer and turn chocolate mixture onto a cutting board; cut into one-inch squares. Return squares to freezer for another 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 cups chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and stir until well combined. Dip frozen chocolate squares into melted chocolate to coat. Place on waxed paper to set up. Keep chocolates in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Two Questions:
1. Is frozen whipped topping Cool Whip?
2. Will these melt at room temperature?

Thanks!

Just a note for everyone who tries these. The whipped topping should be thawed. That’s what the ingredient list says, but the directions then refer to “frozen” whipped topping. Just didn’t want anyone to be confused. Enjoy!

These were good … but difficult, sticky and not pretty. I put a few in chocolate candy bar molds and that worked a lot better. But I had to use almond bark, not melted chocolate to get the molds to work. Not worth the trouble.

I’m having trouble with this recipe. It seems so simple, and yet somehow I must have screwed it up. The nougat is not setting up well, even after 24 hours in the freezer. The cubes are a sticky mess to get off the wax paper and dip into the chocolate. After that they set up and taste great, but they look nothing like your photo. I wouldn’t serve them to anyone but my husband and kids because they just don’t look very pretty. Any suggestions?

This may be the best idea I’ve ever come across! When I made mine, I think that the whipped cream might have been too soft because they didn’t set up like I wanted them to in an hour and melted when I dipped them in chocolate. I ended up leaving mine cut and spread out on a baking sheet in the freezer overnight and this morning they’re the perfect consistency! I also halved the amount of chocolate and doubled the amount of whipped cream for the nougat mixture–something about the chocolate chips made it too rich and I liked it much better lighter. Overall, these are so great! I need to get to the grocery store soon to get more ingredients for my next batch!!
