Rocky Road

One thing I've never made is Rocky Road - I've no idea why because it is very easy to make and requires no oven. Then I saw Jane's Patisserie post a photo on Instagram and I thought I had to make some.

Jane's Patisserie has lots of very yummy recipes - I've previously made the Millionaire's Shortbread which you top with Malteesers. 

The recipe for the Rocky Road is here - I used a microwave to melt the chocolate, butter and golden syrup as it was really quick and just as effective as a bain-marie. 

My first batch wasn't as successful as my second as I was cooking a curry at the same time and was probably maxing out my multi tasking abilities too much. I think I overheated the chocolate/syrup/butter mix which resulted in it thickening and it was difficult to mix with the dry ingredients. I halved the ingredients for the second batch, used a microwave and had no issues. Definitely focus on one thing at a time when making anything!

Yuuummmmmm
