Easter Rocky Road | Recipe

It's that time of year where we all have an abundance of chocolate in our homes. If you're like me, there are only so many chocolate eggs you can eat before you end up feeling physically sick. So this is a great way to use up all of your excess chocolate that you have lying around this Easter! Rocky Road is a perfect "chuck it in" recipe as I like to call it. You can completely customise the ingredients to this recipe but I kept it classic with an Easter twist of some Mini Eggs. Enjoy!

Recipe: Makes 16 Squares

-300g Milk or Dark Chocolate 

-125g Soft Butter

-3tbsp Golden Syrup

-100g Mini Marshmallows

-200g Digestive Biscuits 

-2 bags of Mini Eggs

-40g of White Chocolate to drizzle

Method:
1. Start by getting a square brownie tin or baking tin that is deep enough by about an inch. Place either some tin foil or parchment paper in the tin and set aside.
2. Place a pan on a medium heat and add in the chocolate, butter and golden syrup. Staring occasionally till all the ingredients have melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. In a sandwich bag or large bowl break up the biscuits and Mini Eggs (saving 1/4 of a bag of Mini Eggs for the topping). Don't break them up too much that they are crumbs but so that there are still some large chunks in there.
4. Now in the pan of cooled chocolate add the marshmallows, biscuit and mini egg mixture and stir.
5. Stir till just combines and place into the baking tin. Spread along the bottom of the tin and to the sides so the top is nice and level. Add the remaining mini eggs and push firmly into the top.
6. Place into the fridge for about 2 hours.
7. Once the two hours are up, take out the Rocky Road and set aside.
8. Melt the white chocolate in a bowl in the microwave in 30 second blasts.
9. When it is loose enough, drizzle with a spoon over the top in zig zag motions.
10. Cut into 16 equal squares with a sharp knife and serve.

These little bars are perfect if you fancy something sweet and you can completely customise them to whatever treats you have lying around. Cream Eggs would be amazing in this, or even Malteasers.

Thank you for reading guys, I hope you had an amazing Easter break!
