Christmas Rocky Road
« on: October 03, 2009, 10:45:09 am »
Christmas Rocky Road
375 gms chocolate melts
180 gms clinkers, cut in half
190 gms raspberries (jubes not fruit!, cut in half
100 gms baby marshmallows

Melt  chocolate in TM bowl for 5 minutes/50/Speed 1. 
Scrape down edges and melt for further 1½ minutes/50/Speed soft until desired consistency is achieved. 
With 30 seconds to go, change to reverse and add clinkers, raspberries and baby marshmallows.
Once combined, place into a lined lamington tray and cool before cutting into squares.

This recipe came to me via email so I'm not sure who it "belongs" to but it was very yum. It was a hit with both my sons & grandsons last Christmas. I will have to do it again this year and take some photos. although it looks similar to the clinker slice.

Good work - did it come in TM form or did you convert it?

This recipe was converted when I received it although all you are doing is melting chocolate!!

Suggestion: If you buy (a third half) more clinkers than you need, you can eat all the yellow ones (my favourites) as you cut. Pink and green only would be so much more Christmassy!!

Ahhhh Rocky road, a little taste from home. My Mum is still sending across the Darryl Lea RR each year for me. Would love to try this...just wish they sold clinkers in Italy!

I've just made this, but my version.  I used mini marshmallows, craisins and pistacios.  Looks delicious, just got to wait for it to set so I can chop it up and try some. Hope it lasts until tomorrow!   :D

Hi fundj not sure I'm experienced enough to answer this one!

The melting of chocolate part for sure the added bits most likely. If it looks too much in the bowl you could (god forbid!) hand mix!!

Excellent idea tho!

I have just done a double batch and added the marshies  two and three at a time and had to hand mix at the end.  Came out just fantastic all the same.  Yummmm!

Clinkers
Raspberry Jubes - just scroll until you find them. Red jubes that look like raspberries  ;)
If you can't get them in the UK I can send some over for you CC.
