Ingredients:
– 200g dark chocolate, broken into pieces
– 100g milk chocolate, broken into pieces
– 150g unsalted butter
– 4 tablespoons golden syrup
– 200g digestive biscuits, roughly crushed
– 100g mini marshmallows
– 100g glace cherries, halved
– 50g raisins
– 50g chopped nuts (such as almonds or hazelnuts)
Making the Decadent Rocky Road Squares:
1. Melting the Chocolate:
Place the dark and milk chocolate along with the butter and golden syrup in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, ensuring the base doesn’t touch the water. Allow the ingredients to melt slowly, stirring occasionally until smooth and combined.
2. Creating the Rocky Road Mixture:
Once the chocolate mixture is smooth, remove the bowl from the heat. Add the crushed digestive biscuits, mini marshmallows, glace cherries, raisins, and chopped nuts into the bowl. Gently fold all the ingredients together until evenly coated in the chocolate mixture.
3. Setting the Mixture:
Line a square baking tin with parchment paper, ensuring there’s some overhang for easy removal. Pour the indulgent Rocky Road mixture into the tin, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Press the mixture down firmly to compact it.
4. Chilling and Serving:
Place the tin in the refrigerator and allow the Rocky Road to chill for at least 2-3 hours until set. Once set, remove the Rocky Road from the tin using the parchment overhang. Cut it into squares or bars using a sharp knife.
5. Enjoying the Decadent Delight:
