This is a crispy, tasty and oh so pretty Easter themed Rocky Road recipe made using gluten free ingredients and a simple recipe even the youngest members of the household can make
Author: Cherished By Me
Serves: 24
Ingredients
200 g dark chocolate
2 tbsp golden syrup
125g unsalted butter
160g (Gluten free) digestive biscuits
100g mini marshmallows
90g Cadbury's mini eggs, bashed a bit with a rolling pin
40g Rice Krispies (Rice pops)
To decorate:
200g white chocolate
90g Cadbury's mini eggs
89g packet of Cadbury's creme eggs
Food colouring
Instructions
Put the chocolate, butter and golden syrup into a very large saucepan and heat on slowly a very low heat until everything is melted and the mixture is glossy (adult supervision needed for very young children)
Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 15 minutes
Put the mini eggs into a sandwich bag and bash a little with a rolling pin to break them into smaller pieces
Put the digestive biscuits into a sandwich bag and bash with a rolling pin to break into smaller pieces
Line a tin with baking parchment ( I used a tray bake tin to make the mixture go slightly further and make thinner chunks of Rocky Road but feel free to use a square cake tin if you prefer yours thicker
Add the mini eggs, crushed biscuits, marshmallows & rice krispies to the melted chocolate mixture and stir well to coat everything
Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and place in the fridge to set lightly while you prepare the topping
Carefully cut the mini creme eggs in half
Again adult supervision needed for younger children: Put the white chocolate into a heatproof bowl and place over a pan of slowly simmering water and allow to melt
Remove from the heat
Divide the white chocolate into separate bowls ready for colouring. (So if using three colours plus leaving some plain you will need four bowls.
Add drops of food colouring to the chocolate and work quickly before it starts setting again, start with white chocolate then drizzle with the other colours and use a lolly stick or cocktail stick to swirl the colours into each other
Finish off with mini eggs and the halved creme eggs
Place in the fridge and leave to set for a couple of hours (if you can wait that long)
Remove from the fridge and using a sharp knife cut into squares
Enjoy
