Great for a bake sale, a gift, or simply an afternoon treat to enjoy with a cuppa, this Rocky Road is quick to make and uses mainly store-cupboard ingredients.
Prep: 15 mins
Cook: 5 mins
Difficulty: Easy
Serves: 12
INGREDIENTS
200g digestive biscuits (Rich Tea can also be used)
135g butter or margarine
200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa works best)
2-3 tbsp golden syrup
100g mini marshmallows (chopped regular marshmallows work too)
icing sugar to dust
Optional (up to 100g)
raisins, dried cranberries or any dried fruit
nuts
popcorn
honeycomb, broken into pieces
METHOD
- Grease and line an 18cm square brownie tin with baking paper.
- Place biscuits in a freezer bag and bash with a rolling pin or just the side of your fist until they’re broken into a mixture of everything between dust and 50p-sized lumps. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan melt the butter, chocolate and golden syrup over a gentle heat stirring constantly until there are no or almost no more lumps of chocolate visible, then remove from the heat. Leave to cool.
- Take the biscuits, marshmallows and any additional ingredients and stir into the chocolate mixture until everything is completely covered.
- Tip the mixture into the lined baking tin, and spread it out to the corners. Chill for at least 2 hrs then dust with icing sugar and cut into 12 fingers.
