Ingredients
- 300g white chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup mixed nuts (such as almonds, cashews, and pistachios), roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup mixed dried fruit (such as cranberries, raisins, and apricots), chopped if large
- Melt the white chocolate: Place the chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir continuously until fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt the chocolate gently in 20-30 second bursts in the microwave, stirring well between each burst.
- Combine the mix-ins: Add the mini marshmallows, chopped nuts, and dried fruit to the melted white chocolate. Stir gently yet thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly coated with the chocolate.
- Set the mixture: Pour the combined mixture into a lined or greased square baking pan, spreading it evenly. Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until firm and set.
- Serve: Once set, remove from the fridge and cut into squares or bars. Serve chilled or at room temperature for a creamy, crunchy, and fruity festive treat.
Notes
- Use good-quality white chocolate for a smoother texture and better flavor.
- You can substitute the mixed nuts and dried fruit with your favorites or what you have on hand.
- Store the rocky road in an airtight container in the fridge to keep it fresh for up to one week.
- To avoid nuts being too hard, lightly toast them before adding if desired.
- This recipe is naturally gluten-free but always check your ingredients if you have dietary restrictions.
