Rocky road is a type of confectionery commonly made in Australia. It is made from chunks of marshmallow in a matrix of chocolate. Common optional ingredients include peanuts and blobs of chewy, coloured gelatine-based sweets, similar to jubes.

Ingredients

• 12 oz chocolate morsels
• 2 tbsp milk
• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 cup mini marshmallows
• ¾ cup walnut meats, shelled and chopped
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Procedure

1. Measure all ingredients.
2. Butter an 8x8x2-inch square pan. Reserve.
3. Place chocolate morsels, milk and butter into a heavy-bottomed pot. Set heat control dial at 350°F (175°C).
4. Begin stirring immediately. Stir constantly until chocolate is melted and milk and butter are incorporated. Stir in remaining ingredients.
5. Spread the mixture into the prepared pan.
6. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
