Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams dark chocolate
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams golden syrup
- 200 grams digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
- 150 grams mini marshmallows
- 100 grams chopped walnuts or almonds
- 75 grams dried cranberries or raisins
- 100 grams white chocolate chunks
- 50 grams sprinkles or extra marshmallows for topping
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking tin by lining it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
In a large heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate, unsalted butter, and golden syrup. Place the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water, and stir until melted and smooth. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second increments, stirring each time, until fully melted.
Break the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into small bite-sized pieces by hand or using a rolling pin in a sealed food bag. Do not crush completely; you want a mix of chunks and crumbs.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit pieces, mini marshmallows, chopped nuts, dried cranberries or raisins, and white chocolate chunks.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking tin, pressing it down gently with a spatula to create an even layer.
Sprinkle the top with additional marshmallows, sprinkles, or any extra toppings of your choice.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Once set, remove the rocky road from the tin using the parchment overhang and cut it into 12 equal squares or rectangles.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
