Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 100g milk chocolate, chopped
  • 100g unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup digestive biscuits, crushed
  • 1 cup mixed nuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cherries or cranberries (optional)
  • 1/4 cup icing sugar, for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients for ease of preparation.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and cubed butter. Place over low heat.
  3. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until melted and smooth, avoiding boiling.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes to prevent melting the marshmallows.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine mini marshmallows, crushed digestive biscuits, chopped nuts, and dried cherries or cranberries (if using).
  6. Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over the dry ingredients and add vanilla extract.
  7. Gently fold the chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients with a spatula, being careful not to crush the marshmallows.
  8. Continue folding until everything is well combined and coated in chocolate.
  9. Line an 8×8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
  10. Transfer the rocky road mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly and pressing down gently.
  11. Optionally, sprinkle extra nuts or marshmallows on top for decoration.
  12. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  13. Once set, lift the rocky road out of the dish using the parchment paper.
  14. Place on a cutting board and cut into squares or rectangles.
  15. Dust the top with icing sugar for a sweet finish.
  16. Serve on a platter or in individual paper cases for a fun presentation.
