Easter Rocky Road With Mini Eggs And Marshmallows

Easter Rocky Road With Mini Eggs And Marshmallows

Ingredients
  

  • 14 oz 400 g good-quality milk chocolate, chopped (or use half milk, half dark)
  • 1/2 cup 115 g unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup 80 ml golden syrup or light corn syrup
  • 7 oz 200 g plain tea biscuits or graham crackers, roughly crushed into small chunks
  • 2 cups 100 g mini marshmallows
  • 1 1/2 cups 250 g mini chocolate eggs, plus extra for topping
  • 1/2 cup 80 g chopped almonds or hazelnuts (optional)
  • 1/2 cup 75 g dried cranberries or raisins (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 oz 85 g white chocolate, melted, for drizzle (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Prep the pan: Line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy lifting later.
  • Melt the base: In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, melt the milk chocolate, butter, and golden syrup. Stir often until smooth.
  • Do not let water touch the chocolate bowl.
  • Cool slightly: Remove the bowl from heat and let the mixture cool for 5–7 minutes. It should be glossy but not hot, so the marshmallows don’t melt.
  • Crush and combine: In a large bowl, add the crushed biscuits, mini marshmallows, and 1 cup (about 160 g) of mini eggs. Add nuts and dried fruit if using.
  • Sprinkle in a pinch of salt.
  • Mix with chocolate: Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over the dry ingredients. Fold gently with a spatula until everything is evenly coated.
  • Press into pan: Tip the mixture into the lined pan. Press firmly and evenly with the back of a spoon.
  • Scatter the remaining mini eggs on top, lightly pressing them into the surface.
  • Optional drizzle: Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the top for a contrast finish.
  • Chill to set: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm. For clean slices, chill 3–4 hours.
  • Slice and serve: Lift out using the parchment. Use a sharp, warmed knife to cut into 16 squares.
  • Wipe the blade between cuts for neat edges.
