Best Chocolate 3 Musketeer Candy

Craving the taste of Three Musketeers but want a homemade twist? These easy, 3-ingredient treats taste just like the real thing – but even better!

This is by far the easiest candy recipe you’ll ever come across (and, trust me, it’ll be easier for you than it was for me – I’m still recovering from my chocolate melting fiasco). But, enough about that – let’s focus on these incredibly simple and delicious homemade Three Musketeers!

Now, full confession: I’m not the biggest fan of the original Three Musketeers bar. When’s the last time someone said, “I’m really in the mood for a Three Musketeers”? Yeah, me neither. But when I stumbled upon this recipe from Beantown Baker almost a year ago, I just had to try it. I even tweeted about it! That’s how impressed I was.

Fast forward to Halloween week, and this recipe was on my mind. I pulled it up, saw how few ingredients it required, and whipped up a batch. And let me tell you—these taste exactly like the classic Three Musketeers bar. But better, because they’re homemade! Plus, they have that unique spongy texture the original is known for, thanks to a clever combination of Cool Whip and melted chocolate.

So, if you’ve ever wondered how Cool Whip and melted chocolate could make magic happen, I’ve got the answer for you!

Ingredients

• Cool Whip
• Semisweet chocolate chips
• Milk chocolate chips
• Vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pan:
   Line an 8×8 or 9×9-inch square pan with wax paper for easy removal later.
2. Melt the Semisweet Chocolate:
   In a medium bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips. You can do this in the microwave at 50% power or use a double boiler for smoother results.
3. Add Cool Whip:
   Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the melted chocolate for about 30 seconds. Then, add the Cool Whip and continue beating until the mixture is well combined and fluffy, for about 30-60 seconds.
4. Transfer to the Pan:
   Spread the chocolate mixture evenly into your prepared pan. If the mixture is too stiff, you can press it into the pan with lightly dampened hands.
5. Chill:
   Place the pan in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up the chocolate layer.
6. Cut into Squares:
   Once chilled, remove the pan from the freezer. Turn the chocolate mixture onto a cutting board and cut it into 1-inch squares. Return the squares to the freezer for another 15-20 minutes to set.
7. Melt the Milk Chocolate:
   In the meantime, melt the milk chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil until smooth and well combined.
8. Coat the Squares in Chocolate:
   Dip each frozen chocolate square into the melted milk chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Place them on the wax paper to set.
9. Store:
   Keep your homemade Three Musketeers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain their perfect texture.

These homemade Three Musketeers bars are unbelievably easy to make and taste just like the classic candy – only better! With only three ingredients, you’ll have a delicious treat ready in no time.
