Ingredients
- 200 g Dark Chocolate at least 70% cocoa solids
- 100 g Milk Chocolate
- 125 g Unsalted Butter
- 3 tbsp Golden Syrup
- 100 g Digestive Biscuits or your favorite plain biscuits
- 100 g Mini Marshmallows
- 100 g Glacé Cherries halved
- 100 g Mixed Nuts optional, roughly chopped
- 50 g Raisins or Dried Cranberries optional
- Icing Sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Line a 20cm square baking tin with parchment paper. Leave some overhang for easy removal later.
- Combine 200g dark chocolate, 100g milk chocolate, 125g unsalted butter, and 3 tbsp golden syrup in a heatproof bowl.
- Melt the mixture over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in short bursts.
- Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Break 100g digestive biscuits into bite-sized pieces. Don’t worry about making them uniform; chunks are fine.
- If using, roughly chop 100g mixed nuts.
- Remove the melted chocolate mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Stir in the broken biscuits, 100g mini marshmallows, 100g halved glacé cherries, and the chopped nuts.
- Mix until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the chocolate.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared baking tin.
- Use the back of a spoon to press it down evenly, ensuring it’s level.
- Place the tin in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Let the Rocky Road chill until it’s firm and set.
- Once set, lift the Rocky Road out of the tin using the parchment overhang.
- Cut it into squares or bars. For a decorative touch, dust with icing sugar before serving.
- Store any leftover Rocky Road in an airtight container in the fridge. It will keep well for up to two weeks.
