Share:
Ingredients
- 10 ounce bag large marshmallows (not mini) , cut into 1/4's
- 8 ounces semi-sweet baking chocolate
- 1/2 cup butter* , cut into chunks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prep pan: Grease a 8x8'' baking pan with non-stick cooking spray or butter (or use 4 mini disposable loaf pans, for gifting).
- Cut marshmallows (we use scissors, dipping them in water after each cut, to keep the marshmallow from sticking). Add cut marshmallows to the pan.
- Melt Chocolate: In a saucepan over low heat (or a double boiler) add chocolate and butter. Stir constantly until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and walnuts, if using.
- Slowly drizzle melted chocolate over marshmallows, gently nudging between the marshmallows as you go, so that the chocolate seeps into all of the cracks.
- Refrigerate until set. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks.
Notes
- Butter: If using unsalted butter, add 1/8 tsp salt to the saucepan.
- Marshmallows - use large marshmallows (not miniature), cut into fourths for the perfect rocky block texture. Mini marshmallows wont give the same texture we want.
- Chocolate - Use any high quality semi-sweet chocolate bar (I recommend Baker's chocolate).
- Walnuts (optional) - We don't usually add nuts to our rocky road--I know they are supposed to be the "rock" part, but we prefers the plain marshmallow and chocolate.
- Make Ahead Instructions: rocky road is a great treat to make ahead! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks.
- Freezing Instructions: Freeze in an airtight freezer safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before enjoying.
