Bulgarian Rock very hard nougat. This recipe is an old family recipe I have had for years. I used to make for my DH all the time, and he loved it, as did all who tasted it. I have been asked for the recipe a few times, so I am posting it here for others to view. Bulagarian Rock is well know to many Aussies as it is sold in a well known chocolate shop here, although this not be the exact recipe it is very similar. The serving size is up to how large or small you break the pieces. Beware...Its very nice, but you may get a sore jaw from eating it!!!! Ohh and dont go overboard on the blue food coloring as I did once!! lol
