Ingredients:
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup (or honey/corn syrup)
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as almonds, peanuts, or walnuts)
- 1/2 cup crushed digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries or raisins (optional)
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
- Melt the chocolate and butter: In a heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate, butter, and golden syrup. Melt together over a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth and fully combined.
- Prepare the mix-ins: In a large bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, chopped nuts, crushed biscuits, and dried cranberries or raisins (if using).
- Combine everything: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the marshmallow and nut mixture. Stir everything together until the ingredients are evenly coated with the chocolate.
- Press into a pan: Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper. Pour the rocky road mixture into the pan, pressing it down firmly with a spatula to create an even layer.
- Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the slice is set and firm.
- Cut and serve: Once set, remove the slice from the pan and cut it into squares or bars. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, before serving.
Rocky Road Slice is the perfect blend of chocolatey richness, crunchy nuts, and fluffy marshmallows, making it an irresistible treat for both kids and adults!
