Ingredients

• 300 grams dark chocolate
• 125 grams unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons golden syrup
• 150 grams digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
• 100 grams mini marshmallows
• 75 grams chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or peanuts)
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

Place the dark chocolate, unsalted butter, and golden syrup in a heatproof bowl.

Step 3

Melt the mixture over a saucepan of simmering water (or in the microwave in 30-second intervals), stirring until smooth.

Step 4

Break the digestive biscuits into small chunks (not crumbs) and set aside.

Step 5

Remove the chocolate mixture from heat and let it cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Add the broken biscuits, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts into the chocolate mixture. Stir gently to coat everything evenly.

Step 7

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking tin and spread it out evenly, pressing down slightly to compact it.

Step 8

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely set.

Step 9

Once set, remove the Rocky Road from the tin using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 equal squares or any desired shape.

Step 10

Optional: Dust with powdered sugar before serving for extra flair.
