What is Rocky Road Candy?
Rocky Road Chocolate Candy is a classic, no-bake treat. It is made with a base of melted chocolate and an assortment of mix-ins.
A typical Rocky Road will contain marshmallows, gummies/lollies and sometimes nuts.
How to Make Easter Rocky Road
- Prepare all mix-ins by chopping into smaller pieces (if needed) and set aside. For this recipe, I only chopped the chocolate caramel and sandwich cookies for the mix-ins.
- Cut the milk chocolate bar into smaller chunks and add to a large mixing bowl (If you are using milk chocolate chips/chunks/discs, you can skip this step)
- Add the oil to the bowl with the chocolate
- Heat in the microwave for 30 second increments until melted (stirring in between)
- Chop the caramel milk chocolates then fold into the warm, melted chocolate (While this is a mix-in, it adds some additional chocolate to the milk chocolate base)
- Fold in the chopped vanilla creme cookies, Cadbury mini eggs and mini marshmallows
- Continue until all the mix-ins are coated in chocolate
- Lightly grease a loaf pan with nonstick spray
- Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan
- Spread into an even layer then top with extra Cadbury mini eggs (and other decorations, if desired)
- Put in the freezer to set for 1 hour
- Remove from the pan and slice
- Enjoy!
