Rocky Road Fudge No Bake Food

NO-BAKE ROCKY ROAD BARS

Steps:

• For the bars: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment so that the edges fold over the sides of the pan. Spray with cooking spray.
• Add the sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese and butter to a medium pot and place over low heat. Cook, whisking occasionally so the bottom does not brown, until melted and well combined, a few minutes.
• Put the pecans, walnuts, graham crackers and marshmallows in a bowl; set aside.
• When the cream cheese mixture has melted, whisk until well combined, and then remove from the heat. Fold in the chocolate chips and mix until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is well combined.
• Pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl with the graham cracker mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and place in the fridge for 1 to 1 1/2 hours to set.
• For the quick marshmallow frosting: In the bowl of stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar and butter until creamy, a couple of minutes. Beat in the marshmallow creme.
• Remove the set mixture from the pan. Cut into squares and frost with or dip in the marshmallow frosting. Keep refrigerated.

EASY ROCKY ROAD

Steps:

• Grease and line an 18cm square brownie tin with baking paper.
• Place 200g digestive biscuits in a freezer bag and bash with a rolling pin or just the side of your fist until they're broken into a mixture of everything between dust and 50p-sized lumps. Set aside.
• In a large saucepan melt 135g butter or margarine, 200g dark chocolate and 2-3 tbsp golden syrup over a gentle heat stirring constantly until there are no or almost no more lumps of chocolate visible, then remove from the heat. Leave to cool.
• Take the biscuits, 100g mini marshmallows and up to 100g of additional ingredients (dried fruit, nuts, popcorn, honeycomb), if you like, and stir into the chocolate mixture until everything is completely covered.
• Tip the mixture into the lined baking tin, and spread it out to the corners. Chill for at least 2 hrs then dust with icing sugar and cut into 12 fingers.

ROCKY ROAD

Steps:

ROCKY ROAD FUDGE

Steps:

• Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper to overhang the edges by an inch.
• Whisk the sugar and cocoa together in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the milk until smooth. Set the pot over medium heat, stirring to keep the mixture smooth, and bring to boil. Continue to boil, stirring the edges to keep from burning, until the mixture reaches 220 degrees F, about 60 seconds. (The mixture should be thick, smooth and glossy, not crystallized.) Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt, beating until smooth. Add the peanut butter and stir in, leaving pockets of peanut buttery goodness intact if desired. Let cool until warm but still stirrable, about 5 minutes. (You want the mixture to be soft enough that you can stir in the walnuts and marshmallows, but not so hot that the marshmallows melt entirely.)
• Stir in the marshmallows and walnuts. Spread the mixture in the prepared pan and add the flakey salt and sprinkles. Let cool completely, about 1 hour. Cut into squares to serve. (To store, refrigerate in a covered container with parchment between the layers.)

EASY, NO BAKE ROCKY ROAD FUDGE (ALSO GF)

Steps:

• Combine the chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter in a double boiler. Cook over boiling water until blended, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. *I sometimes melt the chips and butter in the microwave and then add the milk rather than using the double boiler.
• Stir the peanuts and marshmallows into the chocolate mixture.
• Spread the mixture into a 9x13 inch dish lined with wax paper. I use a second sheet of wax paper to flatten the mixture. Spray the paper with cooking spray if you want.
• Chill, covered, for 2 hours or until set. Cut into squares.
• Notes: The hardest part of this recipe is cutting it after it chills. I remove the entire chunk from the pan using the wax paper, and cut it on a cutting board with a butcher knife.
• The actual recipe says to store at room temperature in a covered dish. I always keep it in the fridge, however, because I think it's better chilled.
