    Title: Easy Pistachio-Cranberry Nougat
    Categories: Five, Desserts, Fruits, Nuts, Candy
    Yield: 32 Pieces

    Nonstick spray; for pan
    1 c Dry milk powder; + more for
    - dusting
    1/4 lb Unsalted butter
    10 oz Bag mini marshmallows
    3/4 c Dried cranberries
    3/4 c Pistachios

    Spray an 8" square baking pan with cooking spray; line
    with parchment, leaving a 2" overhang on two sides.
    Spray parchment and dust with milk powder. Melt butter
    in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add marshmallows
    and cook, stirring, until melted, about 2 minutes.

    Stir in milk powder, then cranberries and pistachios.
    Transfer to prepared pan, pressing or spreading to
    evenly fill. Lightly dust top with more milk powder. Let
    stand until set, at least 2 hours.

    Use overhangs to lift nougat out of pan. Cut as desired
    (we made strips slightly less than 1/2" wide, then cut
    them in half again to create about 4" X 3/4" X 1/2"
    pieces). Store between layers of parchment or waxed
    paper at room temperature in an airtight container up to
    2 weeks.

    COOK'S NOTES: Whole-milk powder enriches the flavor and
    helps this super-simple, taffy-like confection set.
