Turrón - noun.

Turrón (Spanish) or torrone (Italian) is a popular confection and Christmas dessert made from nougat, honey, sugar, egg whites, and toasted almonds or other nuts. The Italian version uses fewer nuts than the Spanish version apparently.

You'll find turrón served up in Spain, Portugal, Italy plus other former Spanish and Portuguese colonies such as Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines.
