Please forgive me for the short absence from blogging. Due to a bout of the flue, some crazy busy weeks at work and a big party to celebrate me and T buying our first house together it has been a little bit hectic around here!
I thought id ease back into it with this oh so tasty mountain of rocky-road.
I never used to make this sweet little treat but at the moment I'm making it about twice a week as it flies off the counter at work and is the first dessert to disappear when we cater a buffet.It is a tried and tested crowd pleaser, it tastes amazing and it is nice and fun to make, you don't even need an oven!
Ingredients:
250g butter or margarine
600g rich Milk chocolate
5 tablespoons of golden syrup
400g chocolate chip cookies (these can be gluten free if your that way inclined!)
200g mini marshmallows
22 bags of peanut m&m's or a similar equivalent!
Method:
Break up your chocolate and place in a microwavable bowl along with your butter and the golden syrup. Microwave for about 1 minute.
Take your mixture our of the microwave and give it a good stir, if some of the chocolate and butter still needs more melting then pop it back in for another minute or so, but keep a close eye on it as this stuff can burn really really quickly and then its back to the drawing board!
When all of your chocolate mixture is melted allow it to cool for a minute or so. This is so that the marshmallows don't melt away to nothing and it gives you time to break your biscuits up into smaller pieces.
Once everything is cooled and ready: combine all of your ingredients in a big bowl and mix in well.
Technically you call it quits now and tuck in! But if you have a little bit more patience then I would defiantly recommend pouring it into a lined dish/baking tray and placing in the fridge for a few hours, or ideally overnight, until the chocolate is all set!
When your rocky road is set your okay to take it out of the tin and with a sharp knife carefully cut it into whatever shape/size you desire!
Let me know if you give this recipe a go!:)
Thank you for reading!
