Ingredients
- 300 grams semisweet chocolate chips
- 400 grams sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 150 grams mini marshmallows
- 100 grams toasted almonds (or your preferred nuts)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with butter. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter.
Step 3
Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the mixture in a double boiler over low heat.
Step 4
Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Step 5
Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes to prevent melting the marshmallows and nuts.
Step 6
Fold in the mini marshmallows and toasted almonds, ensuring they are evenly coated in the chocolate mixture.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 8
Refrigerate the Rocky Road candy for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Step 9
Once firm, remove the candy from the pan using the parchment paper and place it on a cutting board.
Step 10
Use a sharp knife to cut the candy into small squares or bars.
Step 11
Serve immediately or store the candy in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
