Rocky Road is a classic treat that’s loved by kids and adults alike, and this recipe is super easy to make, taking just 20 minutes from start to finish. It’s perfect for when you need a quick dessert or snack that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
To begin, line a 30cm square tin with baking paper, ensuring that it covers the base and sides of the tin. This will make it easier to remove the Rocky Road once it’s set.
Next, melt the dark chocolate and Copha together in a heatproof bowl set over gently boiling water, stirring occasionally until smooth and well combined. Copha adds a rich and creamy texture to the chocolate, making it perfect for coating the other ingredients.
While the chocolate mixture is melting, combine the marshmallows, unsalted peanuts, and coconut in another large bowl. You can use any type of marshmallows you like, but mini marshmallows work especially well in this recipe.
Once the chocolate and Copha mixture is melted and smooth, pour it over the marshmallow mixture and stir until all of the ingredients are evenly coated. This will ensure that every bite of Rocky Road is packed full of chocolatey goodness.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared tin, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the remaining coconut over the top, pressing it gently into the mixture to help it stick.
Place the tin in the refrigerator and chill until firm, which usually takes about 1-2 hours. Once set, remove the Rocky Road from the tin and cut it into chunky squares using a sharp knife.
Serve your homemade Rocky Road as a delicious dessert or snack anytime you’re craving something sweet. It’s also great for gifting during the holiday season โ simply package a few squares in cellophane bags and tie them with green and red ribbon for a festive touch.
Enjoy the irresistible combination of chewy marshmallows, crunchy peanuts, and rich chocolate in every bite of this homemade Rocky Road. It’s sure to become a favorite treat in your household!
