This "no bake, throw it all in" recipe is perfect for making with children.
The ingredients aren't particularly important, providing you have rice crispies or cornflakes and chocolate, everything else is a bonus!
There is no baking, and no measuring, but lots of stirring and potential for spoon licking.
The results taste pretty good too!
You will need
- 200g Chocolate ((value)milk or cooking)
- 2-3 handfuls of rice crispies or cornflakes
- Mini marshmallows
- Cherries (halved)
- White chocolate chunks or buttons
- Mini smarties
- Maltesers
- Jelly tots
- Popping candy
Equipment
- Baking parchment/greaseproof paper
- Tin (optional but used to for a uniform shape)
- Sauce pan
- Heatproof bowl
Get started
- Put some water in your pan and heat to a low simmer
- Break all up the chocolate in your bowl
- Put the bowl of chocolate into the pan - ideally so the bottom doesn't touch the water.
- Gently stir the chocolate until it melts
- Begin by adding any extras you have to the melted chocolate EXCEPT white choc, if you add this too soon it will melt into the mix and you won't notice it was ever there. You may also want to hold back a few mashmallows to decorate the top with later
- Then begin adding your rice crispies one handful at a time whilst stirring. Do this slowly so that you can stop adding crispies when then there is just enough chocolate to cover all the crispies and make sure that everything sticks together
- Tip the chocolate crispy mix on the baking paper and spread it out (put this inside a tray if you want a uniform shape)
- Sprinkle with the remaining marshmallows
- Cover the mix with another sheet of baking paper and then press down evenly and gently across the mix to help it compact and stick together
- Leave to set for an hour or two and then uncover
- Your finished rocky road can now be cut into slices using a sharp knife
