A festive, no-bake treat packed with chocolate, marshmallows, pistachios, and cherries, topped with white chocolate and sprinkles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 g (7 oz) milk chocolate – cut into even pieces
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) dark chocolate – cut into even pieces
  • 20 g (¼ cup) desiccated coconut
  • 80 g (1 cup) white marshmallows – quartered
  • 45 g (⅓ cup) pistachios – unsalted/shells removed
  • 100 g (½ cup) glacé/candied red cherries – halved
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) white chocolate
  • 2 tablespoon red m&m's – or other candy
  • 1 teaspoon silver cachous

Instructions

  1. Line an 18 cm x 13 cm (7 inch x 5 inch) slice tin with baking paper.
  2. Place the desiccated coconut, quartered marshmallows, pistachios, and halved cherries in a bowl.
  3. Prepare a bain-marie or double boiler by placing a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water, ensuring the bowl does not touch the water.
  4. Add the chopped milk and dark chocolate pieces to the heatproof bowl.
  5. Stir the chocolate with a metal spoon or spatula until it has almost melted.
  6. Remove the bowl from the heat and let the residual heat melt the remaining chocolate.
  7. Allow the melted chocolate to cool for a couple of minutes.
  8. Pour the slightly cooled melted chocolate into the bowl with the marshmallows, coconut, pistachios, and cherries.
  9. Stir well until all ingredients are completely covered in chocolate.
  10. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin.
  11. Flatten the mixture down evenly with a spatula or metal spoon.
  12. Place the tin in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  13. In a clean bowl, melt the white chocolate.
  14. Remove the rocky road from the fridge.
  15. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the slightly chilled rocky road.
  16. Decorate immediately with red M&M's and silver cachous.
  17. Place the rocky road back in the fridge for 2 hours or until fully set.
  18. Take the rocky road out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before cutting.
  19. Using a warm, sharp knife, cut the rocky road into 10 pieces.

Notes

Chop chocolates into small, even pieces for smooth melting.
Do not overheat chocolate; melt gently over simmering water.
Allow melted chocolate to cool slightly before mixing with marshmallows to prevent melting.
Warm your knife under hot water and wipe dry for clean cuts.
