Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Vegan dark chocolate
- 3 tablespoons Vegan butter
- 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
- 100 grams Vegan marshmallows
- 100 grams Unsalted nuts (e.g., almonds, hazelnuts, or peanuts)
- 50 grams Dried fruit (e.g., cranberries or raisins)
- 100 grams Vegan digestive or graham crackers
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Begin by lining an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, making sure the edges of the paper hang over the sides to facilitate easy removal later.
Break the vegan dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl. Add the vegan butter and golden syrup.
Set the bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir the mixture occasionally until it is completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt the chocolate mixture in a microwave by heating in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
While the chocolate mixture is melting, prepare the other ingredients. Chop the vegan marshmallows into halves or quarters if they are large. Roughly chop the nuts into smaller pieces and crush the vegan digestive or graham crackers into bite-sized chunks.
Once the chocolate mixture is melted and smooth, remove it from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Add the chopped marshmallows, nuts, dried fruit, and crushed crackers into the bowl of melted chocolate. Stir until all ingredients are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Pour the rocky road mixture into the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to spread it evenly, pressing down lightly for an even surface.
Place the dish in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Once set, remove the rocky road from the dish by lifting the parchment paper. Cut into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife.
Serve and enjoy your Vegan Classic Rocky Road or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
