Rocky Road
Recipe video above. I love a good Rocky Road. I love the heftiness and endless versatility of add-ins. Though, unsurprisingly, I have views on what makes a good one! Ratios matter. Too much chocolate and not enough add-ins is not good! So here's my Rocky Road recipe. Super easy. :)Use chips or melts for an easy option. Upgrade to Lindt for premium. Excellent food gift. Think - Christmas, birthdays, thank you, get well present.
