Eggy Road - Easter Rocky Road
EASTER BAKING

Eggy Road – Easter Rocky Road

Rocky Road – A perfect sweet treat, perfect size for a lunchbox, made with just about anything you want to throw in 🙂  In my Easter version – Eggy Road, I’ve added in Marshmallow & speckled eggs to “easter-fy” it 😛 Of course, you can leave out the nuts if you want it nut-free, use a darker chocolate base if you’re brave enough (I’ve heard Whittaker’s 72% Dark Ghana is pretty good), or change up any of the ingredients.

 

Eggy Road – Easter Rocky Road

Ingredients:

  • 2 x King Size Blocks Whittaker’s 50% Cacao Dark Block
  • 1/2 cup marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup speckled eggs
  • 8 jelly snakes
  • 1/2 cup Maltesers
  • 6 Rainbow Marshmallow Eggs
  • 1/4 cup walnuts (or any other nut)

 

Method:

  • Line a baking tray with baking paper and set aside.
  • Cut the jelly snakes into smaller bits & the Rainbow marshmallow eggs into halves.
  • Place 1 and half blocks of the Whittaker’s 50% Cacao Dark Block in a microwave proof bowl.
  • Microwave for 30 seconds.  Stir (preferably with a silicone spatula). Repeat until the chocolate is liquid.
  • Add in half of the leftover solid chocolate. Stir until completely dissolved.
  • Pour approx 3-4 tablespoons of the melted chocolate into the lined baking tray.  Spread along the base of the tray (making a thin layer of chocolate).
  • Place the marshmallows, speckled eggs, snakes, maltesers, marshmallow eggs, walnuts into the bowl of melted chocolate & fold into the chocolate gently.
  • Pour mixture into the lined baking tray and spread across the tray.
  • Pick up and tap the base of the full tray on the countertop.
  • Microwave the remaining chocolate to melt.
  • Pour over everything in the lined tray.
  • Pop into the fridge to set for 4-5 hours or overnight if you can wait that long 😛
  • Cut into pieces with a sharp knife.
  • Store in an airtight container.

 

Enjoy! 🙂
