A fun rocky road with a yummy malteasers crunch!
Want to make your plain rocky road a bit more exciting? Then this malteasers rocky road recipe is just for you! By adding malteasers to the recipe, it gives your rocky road an exciting crunch and a new flavour and texture enjoy. Making this rocky road recipe is also super easy and you don't even have to use the oven! Plus, the only equipment you need is a pan, bowl and spoon, making it a lot quicker than many other recipes for the washing up!
My Notes:
I really love making rocky road and experimenting with different chocolates and adding malteasers is such a fun way to go! I really love this recipe as it is so simple and quick to make and malteasers are so yummy! This rocky road recipe is also great as you can customise it to add as much or as little amount of malteasers as you like. You can also cut it into different sizes depending on how much you need or how many people you want to share with. Plus, as you don't have to bake it, you can leave it in the fridge to set for the minimum amount of time or even overnight if it's easier for you (I often do this when I'm busy!).
Serves: 12 Pieces
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cooking Time: 0 Minutes (1-2 hours for setting)

Please note these are only rough nutritional facts and will depend on the specific ingredients used.
Ingredients:
275g Milk Chocolate
60g Golden Syrup
60g Butter/Stork
75g Mini Marshmallows
75g Digestive Biscuits
150g Malteasers
Method:
Line a tin or food-safe box (7x9 inch) with baking paper.
In a pan or microwave, slowly melt together the chocolate, butter and golden syrup, making sure to stir well so all the ingredients combine.
Once they are completely melted, set this mixture aside to cool for 5-10 minutes.
In the meantime, chop or break up your digestive biscuits into chunks.
Add the mini marshmallows, broken digestive biscuits and 100g of the malteasers into the chocolate mixture and combine so the ingredients are all covered.
Pour the final mixture into the tin or box and evenly spread out with a spatula or the back of a wooden spoon.
Add the remaining 50g of malteasers on top either whole or crushed. Press down into the mix slightly to make sure they stick.
Place in the fridge for 1-2 hour or until fully hardened to set.
Cut into equal pieces (usually 12).
Enjoy!
My Tips:
You can use whatever size tin or food-safe box you prefer, it will just alter the overall size and thickness of your rocky road pieces. I usually aim for around an inch thick.
You can easily melt the chocolate, butter and golden syrup in the microwave, however, I would suggest using a pan as this means you can slowly melt all the ingredients and mix at the same time so you don't risk burning the chocolate.
When chopping up the digestives, it is up to you the exact size of the pieces. I like mine in bigger chunks so you can see them better!
It is really important that you don't skip step 3! If you don't leave the mixture to cool enough, when you add the mini marshmallows, digestives and malteasers, they will just melt into the mixture and the biscuits will get soggy! By leaving it to cool, you get the distinctive pieces and textures throughout.
You can cut your rocky road in any way you like! I personally like to cut them into around an inch squared pieces (12 pieces). You can easily make them bigger or smaller - it's up to you!
The excellent thing about this recipe is that you can make more or less depending on your need! Simply half or double (or more!) the ratio of ingredients to make the amount you want.
If you want to give this recipe a go, but you don't like malteasers, why not try a different flavour? Why not try my smarties rocky road recipe or use any other chocolate of your choice!
