Ingredients:
- 16 oz (450g) white chocolate, chopped
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup unsalted peanuts or almonds, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins
- 1/2 cup desiccated coconut (optional)
- 1/4 cup crushed biscuits or graham crackers (optional)
Instructions:
- Melt the White Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in short intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Prepare the Mix-ins: In a large bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, chopped nuts, dried cranberries or raisins, and any optional add-ins like coconut or crushed biscuits.
- Combine: Pour the melted white chocolate over the mix-ins and stir well until everything is evenly coated.
- Set the Rocky Road: Line a square baking pan (8×8 inches) with parchment paper. Pour the mixture into the pan and spread it out evenly, pressing it down slightly to ensure everything sticks together.
- Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the rocky road is firm.
- Slice and Serve: Once set, lift the rocky road out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut it into squares or bars.
