Steps
1. Prepare all the ingredients and weigh them.

3. After the butter is melted into a liquid state by insulating water, keep it warm for later use.
4. Put maltose, water, sugar, and salt into a milk pot.
5. Insert a thermometer to detect food temperature and heat over medium heat.
6. Use a whisk to beat the egg whites until they are dry. Just hold the whisk head upside down and have a small tip.
7. When the temperature of the sugar water reaches above 140 degrees, about 142 degrees, remove from the fire.
8. Immediately pour into the beaten egg whites (if the temperature is low, the egg white basin needs to be separated by a hot water basin). At the same time, beat the egg whites and continue beating. The sugar water needs to be poured on the egg whites without touching the wall of the basin and the whisk head. After beating the sugar water, stir evenly, pour in the warm butter liquid, and stir evenly.
9. Pour in the milk powder and beat with a whisk to blend the milk powder into the sugar. It should be noted here that the whisk power is at least 200W, otherwise the whisk will easily burn out. If not used If you are using a whisk, use a hard spatula to stir in this step.

Tips
- 1. The ingredients should be prepared in advance and placed nearby to avoid being rushed. 2. Use cooked peanuts for peanuts. Added nuts or dried fruits are best kept warm for later use. 3. Liquid butter also needs to be kept warm. 4.When boiling sugar, use medium-low heat at the beginning. After 120 degrees, it is best to turn to low heat, and 120 degrees to 140 degrees will also take a certain amount of time. 5. The egg whites can be beaten at the same time as the sugar boiling, or you can wait until the sugar water reaches 100 degrees before beating. 6. When mixing the egg bowl with sugar water, it is best to place a hot water basin at the bottom, which will make subsequent operations easier. 7. After mixing, fold and press the nougat several times. 8. When it is still a little soft, it can be cut. If it is too hard, it will easily fall off.
