We will be surprised if you have the name of any good homemade candy in your mind other than Rock Road. A classy combination of dark chocolate, chewy marshmallows and toasted nuts, this wonderful candy is loved by almost everybody.
Ingredients
- Dark chocolate, chopped - 9 ounces (1.25 cups)
- Miniature marshmallows - 2 cups
- Chopped, toasted walnuts - ½ cup
Instructions
- If you have large marshmallows, first of all cut them into small pieces with the help of kitchen shears.
- Now, prepare a cooking sheet. You need to cover the sheet either with aluminium foil or parchment.
- The next step is about melting the chocolate.
- For this, put the chocolate in the microwave for a few minutes.
- You can also use a double boiler.
- Keep stirring until the chocolate is completely smooth.
- It is the time to add the walnuts and marshmallows.
- The later item should be snipped into very small sizes.
- Remember, it feels really bad to have a large marshmallow in your mouth while you are enjoying the Rocky Road candy.
- After adding the walnuts and marshmallows, you are supposed to stir the material thoroughly, making sure they are totally covered with the chocolate.
- The material is ready now.
- Transfer it to the cookie sheet by using a medium spoon.
- Level the surface with the help of a knife.
- The final step is putting the cookie sheet in the refrigerator.
- You need to chill it until set.
- It may take some time, because the chocolate is still hot.
- Before transferring the material into the cookie sheet, add ingredients according to your choice.
- A unique taste can be generated by adding coconut as the additional ingredients.
- Dried fruit and chunks of white chocolate are also good options in this regard.
