Ingredients
Chocolate Base
- 300 g milk chocolate, chopped
- 100 g white chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup Biscoff spread
Mix-ins
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup crushed plain sweet biscuits (digestive or tea biscuits work best)
- 1/2 cup chopped Biscoff biscuits
- 1/2 cup roasted peanuts or almonds (or mix of both)
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Tin
- Line a 20 cm square tin with baking paper, leaving a slight overhang to make lifting the slice easier later.
2️⃣ Make the Rocky Road
- Melt the milk and white chocolate together in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water (double boiler) or gently in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring each time until smooth.
- Stir in the Biscoff spread until completely combined with the melted chocolate. The mixture should be glossy and luscious.
- Fold in the mini marshmallows, crushed plain biscuits, chopped Biscoff biscuits, and nuts. Make sure every piece is coated in chocolate and Biscoff goodness.
3️⃣ Set the Slice
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and gently smooth the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for 3–4 hours, or until firm. For a quicker set, you can place it in the freezer for 1–2 hours.
4️⃣ Serve
- Lift the rocky road from the tin using the overhanging baking paper.
- Cut into squares or rectangles with a sharp knife. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Methods
- No-bake method: This dessert relies on chocolate to bind the ingredients, so melting and folding are crucial.
- Double chocolate: Combining milk and white chocolate creates both depth and creaminess.
- Mix-in technique: Ensure marshmallows and biscuits are evenly coated for the best texture balance.
History & Formation
Rocky road slices originated in Australia and the US during the early 20th century as a way to combine leftover ingredients like chocolate, nuts, and marshmallows into a simple treat. The Biscoff twist is a modern European take, combining the caramelized spice of Biscoff cookies with the classic chocolate marshmallow base. Its layered textures and rich flavors make it a modern indulgence while keeping the nostalgic charm of the original rocky road.
