Ingredient notes

The peanut or biscuit crunch in traditional rocky road is replaced with chopped peppermint crisp bars, while lolly spearmint leaves add the chewy, gooey factor.

You'll also need marshmallows and chocolate!

You'll find the ingredient list and quantities in the recipe card at the end of this post.

A cause for celebration

I first come up with this Mint Rocky Road for my Dad's 70th birthday party, which was a lovely celebration. It's a recipe I'll definitely be coming back to for Christmas parties and other celebratory occasions.

How to make Mint Rocky Road

Another great thing about Rocky Road is how absolutely easy it is to make.

After combining the chopped marshmallows, peppermint crisp bars and spearmint leaves in a bowl, you simply melt the chocolate and pour it over the chopped ingredients.

Give it a good stir and then pour the mixture into a tray lined with baking paper and place in fridge to set.

Once set, cut into small pieces.

Storage

Store your Rocky Road in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a few weeks.

Provided it's in an airtight container, it can also be frozen for up to a couple of months.
