3 Musketeers Bar Recipe
This Homemade 3 Musketeers Bar Recipe features a light and fluffy chocolate filling coated in a smooth chocolate shell. Made with just three simple ingredients, this no-bake treat is easy to prepare and delivers the same indulgent taste as the classic candy bar.
12 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate for a richer flavor
- 8 ounces whipped topping thawed, such as Cool Whip or any preferred brand
- 10 ounces chocolate melting wafers or almond bark for a smooth outer coating
Instructions
Melt the Chocolate
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 2 cups of milk chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval. Continue until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Ensure the chocolate does not overheat, as this may cause it to seize.
Prepare the Fluffy Filling
- Allow the melted chocolate to cool for approximately 10 minutes to prevent it from melting the whipped topping.
- Once cooled, gently fold in the whipped topping, stirring slowly until the mixture is fully combined and reaches a light, airy consistency. The texture should resemble a fluffy chocolate mousse.
Shape & Freeze
- Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to facilitate easy removal.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth surface.
- Place the dish in the freezer for 30-40 minutes, or until the filling is firm enough to slice cleanly.
Cut the Bars
- Once the filling is set, lift it from the baking dish and transfer it to a cutting board.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the chocolate block into 12 equal bars. If a cleaner cut is desired, lightly grease the knife before slicing.
- Return the bars to the freezer for an additional 15 minutes to firm up before dipping in chocolate.
Coat in Chocolate
- Melt the chocolate melting wafers (or almond bark) in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each interval until completely smooth.
- Using a fork, dip each chilled bar into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess coating to drip off before placing the bars on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Let the bars set at room temperature or refrigerate for 20 minutes until the chocolate coating is firm.
