Rocky Road
Ingredients
- 80 g Pistachio Nuts Chopped
- 50 g Macadamia Nuts Chopped
- 50 g Peanuts Chopped
- 200 g Digestive Biscuits Crushed
- 100 g Mini Marshmallows
- 100 g Milk Chocolate Chips
- 150 g Dark Chocolate Chips
- 120 g Unsalted Butter Cubed
- 45 g Golden Syrup
Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Roughly chop the pistachio nuts, macadamia nuts and peanuts. Add the nuts to a baking tray lined with parchment paper, spreading them out for an even roast. Roast in the oven for 6 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Allow to cool down. If you'd like a nut topping later, set a small handful aside once cooled.
- In the meantime, place the digestive biscuits into a mixing bowl and crush them with your hands into different-sized pieces.
- Add the marshmallows as well as the cooled roasted nuts (minus any reserved for topping) and mix it all together.
- For the chocolate, place a large saucepan onto your stovetop and add both chocolates, butter and golden syrup. Place over medium-low heat and gently stir the ingredients regularly, just until everything has melted together. Remove from the stovetop.
- Add the dry mixture to the chocolate, half at a time, mixing through until everything is coated well. Add the remaining dry mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a 20cm x 20cm baking dish lined with parchment paper. Firmly push down the mixture to avoid any air bubbles and to spread it evenly. At this point, for an optional addition, sprinkle over the reserved chopped nuts for a nice layer on top. Place in the fridge for anywhere between 2 to 24 hours to set.
- To serve, remove the rocky road from the fridge and allow it to sit for 10 minutes. Remove it from the tray, discard the parchment paper, and cut it into 16 even-sized pieces. To do this, slice in half, then each half in half again to get 4 even-sized rectangles. Rotate 90 degrees and repeat the process, then serve. Dig in.

Recipe Notes
Rocky Road Storage Instructions
This can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 week at full flavour. Due to sugar content, it will last longer than that but will start to lose its full flavour over time. Alternatively, it can be stored in a cool dark space if need be, where it will last up to 4 days, both held in an airtight container.
What Can I Add To Rocky Road?
Rocky Road is one of those dessert and sweet treats that you can add whichever ingredients you have available. Traditionally Turkish delight is used for soft chewiness, but honestly, I’m not too fond of the stuff, so I left it out of this recipe. By all means, add it in if you like. All sorts of dried fruits, biscuits, lollies and nuts can be added to this, so it’s a great treat to use up leftover produce you may have lying around.
