Easy Crunchie Rocky Road Recipe

How To Make Crunchie Rocky Road

Start by lining a square tin with grease proof paper and breaking up all of the dark chocolate and 150 g of the milk chocolate into a bowl. (Put 50g of milk chocolate to one side to drizzle later) Add the syrup and butter and put to one side.

Now break up the Crunchie bars into a large bowl, you want to break them up into crunchie chunks, but not too small. I find putting them in a sealable bag and hitting them with a rolling pin does the job. 

Next break up the digestives into the bowl and mix in the the crunches, the digestives need to be smaller in size than the Crunchie pieces it’s ok if there are small pieces and crumbs too. 

You can now melt the chocolate and butter mixture, I popped it into the microwave for 1 minute in a heatproof bowl, but watched it until the butter had melted. As soon as the butter melts take it out and stir. Don’t worry if the chocolate hasn’t melted, simply stir it with a spatula and the butter very quickly melts the chocolate.

Gradually mix the biscuit mix and marshmallows until it is thoroughly coated with the melted chocolate mixture, it takes quite a bit of mixing. Give it a good stir to ensure all the biscuit is thoroughly coated.

Pour the Crunchie Rocky Road mixture into the lined tin, and evenly spread into all of the corners, once it is evenly spread place a piece of grease proof paper on top and squash it down to compact.

Melt the remaining chocolate in the microwave and drizzle over the top of the flattened Rocky Road and sprinkle with marshmallows.

Pop the Crunchie Rocky Road into the fridge to set for at least 3 hrs.

Once you Crunchie Rocky Road is thoroughly set remove from the fridge and slice into 20 squares with a sharp knife.

How To Store Your Crunchie Rocky Road

Store in an airtight container in the fridge, it melts pretty quickly if left out so keep it cool. It’s ok to serve on a buffet, or charcuterie, however leaving out overnight will make it soft. You can store it for up to a week, any longer and it won’t taste as fresh.

Recipe Variations

If you are not a fan of dark chocolate you can substitute the dark chocolate for milk chocolate. However the dark chocolate flavour is not overwhelming, if anything it balances the sweetness of the Rocky Road Bars. You can also add raisins for extra texture and flavour.

If Crunchie isn’t your thing, you can swap it for this for almost anything including 

• Maltesers
• Match Sticks
• Aero Balls
•  Mars Bars
• Cranberries and Pistachios
• Anything with a bit of favour and texture will give this recipe and new and different flavour.
• Coconut or Bounty Bars
• Peanuts and Raisins
• Biscoff Rocky Road would also be a winner!
