Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 5 tablespoons golden syrup
- 200 grams digestive biscuits
- 100 grams mini marshmallows
- 100 grams raisins
- 50 grams dried cranberries
Instructions
Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some excess to hang over the edges for easy removal later.
In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, unsalted butter, and golden syrup.
Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate and butter melt together, creating a smooth mixture.
Remove the bowl from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
While the chocolate mixture cools, place the digestive biscuits in a large zip-top bag and bash them with a rolling pin until you have a mixture of pieces and crumbs. You want some nice chunks for texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed digestive biscuits, mini marshmallows, raisins, and dried cranberries.
Pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well to coat everything evenly with chocolate.
Pour the rocky road mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down lightly with a spatula to create an even layer.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Once set, use the parchment paper to lift the rocky road from the dish. Cut into squares using a sharp knife and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
