Here’s an easy, addictively fluffy Cool Whip Candy recipe—only 3 ingredients needed! It tastes like a cross between marshmallow nougat and a Three Musketeers bar.
If you’d like, I can also give you variations (peanut butter, mint, cookies & cream, etc.).
🍫 Cool Whip Candy (3-Ingredient Three Musketeers Copycat)
⭐ Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed

(or almond bark/candy melts)
🔥 Instructions
1. Melt the chocolate
- Place 2 cups chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl.

4. Cut into pieces
