Line an 8-inch (20cm) square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate chips, smooth peanut butter, and unsalted butter.
Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) and stir gently until the ingredients are melted and smooth. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted.
Remove the melted mixture from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Roughly chop the digestive biscuits (or graham crackers) into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, salted peanuts, and chopped biscuits.
Pour the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients and gently stir until everything is well coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly and pressing it down slightly with a spatula to ensure itβs compact.
Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until set.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the Peanut Butter Rocky Road out of the dish. Cut into 12 equal squares or desired portions.
Serve chilled, and store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
