Ingredients
- 200 g Digestive biscuits crushed
- 100 g mini marshmallows
- 50 g salted pistachios shelled
- 153 g Turkish Delight 3 small bars, chopped
- 100 g milk chocolate
- 100 g dark chocolate
- 135 g unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp golden syrup
Extra Topping
- 102 g Turkish Delight 2 small bars, chopped
- handful salted pistachios shelled
- icing sugar to dust
Instructions
- Bash up the Digestive biscuits with a rolling pin - you are aiming for some boulders, small pieces and a little fine crumb.
- Add the crushed biscuits, mini marshmallows, pistachios, and chopped Turkish Delight into a large bowl and give everything a good mix.
- Add the milk and dark chocolate, butter and golden syrup to a saucepan and heat very gently until everything has melted.
- Tip the crushed biscuits etc into the melted chocolate. Add it in stages and coat it with the chocolatey mixture really well before adding more.
- Transfer the Rocky Road mixture to a lined 20cm square baking tin and press down with the back of a spoon.
- Add the extra Turkish Delight and a handful of pistachios on top of the Rocky Road mixture pressing down with the back of a spoon.
- Chill the baking tin in the fridge for a couple of hours until the Rocky Road has set.
- Once set, slice into squares using a sharp knife and dust with icing sugar to serve.

Notes
- Avoid blitzing the biscuits in a food processor: instead, bash them with a rolling pin so you have a variety of sizes - large, small and some crumbs.
- If you don't have a 20cm square tin you can use any size but bear in mind your Rocky Road will be deeper or thinner depending on which tin you use.
- When the Rocky Road has set hard cut it using a very sharp knife. I like to run the knife under a hot tap in between each cut so that I get clean and even squares.
- Rocky Road can be eaten straight from the fridge but I think it tastes better brought to room temperature first.
- Rocky Road will keep refrigerated or in an airtight container for at least two weeks.
- Rocky Road freezes well for up to 3 months.
