Today is National Nougat Day. But what is nougat? Nougat is a fluffy, aerated confection that is made of sugar or honey and egg whites. It often contains fruits and nuts. Traditional nougat resembles fudge and is a far cry from the processed candy fillings you might be familiar with, which are generally made with hydrolyzed proteins and corn syrup and are found in 3 Musketeers, Snickers, and Milky Way candy bars.
For today's holiday, I thought I'd post a Retro Recipe for Betty Crocker's "New Method" Chocolate Nougat Cake.
Rich, moist, chocolately...with nuts all through.
