I really fancied some chocolate yesterday but it was a tad too warm, so I consulted the Hummingbird Bakery book and decided to merge the fridge cake and rocky road recipes together, with a few alterations, to make a refrigerated gooey rocky road!
Ingredients:
300g milk chocolate
150g white chocolate
200ml golden syrup
x5 digestive biscuits
as many marshmallows as you want
as many raisins as you want
Method:
1. Melt the chocolate in the usual way i.e. above a boiling pan of water in a bowl, and add the golden syrup. Keep stirring until melted and take the bowl off the heat.
2. Place on the side and wait 5 minutes for the mix to semi cool down, during this time crunch up 3 of the biscuits in your hand and sprinkle them, the raisins and the marshmallows in to the mix and stir quickly. I say this because you only want the marshmallows to half melt and mix in with the chocolate, this makes it ultra gooey and gives a marble effect.
3. Sprinkle some more raisins, marshmallows and the 2 remaining digestives on top, gently pushing them in to the mix for effect and extra crunch.
4. Place the finished mix into a square container or baking tin and put in the fridge until it is solid. Once it has set, using a bread knife, chop in to squares and serve with a cool drink. In Starbucks rocky road sized slices this can serve about 7-12 people depending on the length and width of your container/tin.
ENJOY :)
