Easter Rocky Road

Posted in : Chocolate, Easter, Recipes, Traybakes on by : rachgriff@hotmail.com

It’s always a treat when my monthly copy of ‘Olive’ magazine drops through the letterbox!  Olive is a publication that combines my loves of food, recipes and travel.  This month’s Easter edition included a recipe for ‘Easter Rocky Road’ that I just had to share!  I have tweaked the recipe slightly from the original.  It’s very easy to follow – ideal for kids!

Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate (chopped)
  • 200g milk chocolate (chopped)
  • 50g butter
  • 1 tbsp golden syrup
  • 100g Rich Tea biscuits (broken into small pieces)
  • 100g mini marshmallows
  • 2 Crunchie bars (roughly chopped)
  • Selection of mini eggs (I used Cadbury Mini Eggs, Smarties Mini Eggs and Galaxy Golden Eggs)

Method

  1. Gently melt both chocolates, the butter and golden syrup in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
  2. Stir in the biscuits, marshmallows and Crunchie.
  3. Line a 20cm square brownie tin with a double layer of clingfilm then tip in the chocolate mix and level out as much as possible.
  4. Push the mini eggs down into the surface.
  5. Put in the fridge to set overnight.
  6. Cut into squares to serve (if it’s difficult to cut, warm the knife before slicing).

 

Warning!  This Rocky Road is seriously moreish!  In fact I can’t stop eating it and my eldest Son stated earlier that this is one of the best things I’ve ever made!  There’s no chance of this batch seeing Easter!
