Rocky Road Candy
March 14, 2012
Just because you are no longer a little kid doesn't mean you can't have those out of the blue candy cravings. It happens to each one of us from time to time. The force may be strong in some people, but others just can't resist the allure of a delectable piece of chocolate candy!
Rocky Road has always been exciting and interesting as it gives you the softness and sponginess of marshmallows, the crunch and subtle saltiness of peanuts, as well as the melt-in-your-mouth goodness of chocolate!
Below is a recipe you can make for yourself or share with your loved ones. Just don't go overboard with the munching, albeit difficult.
| Rocky Road Candy • 1 cup chocolate chips • 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate • 1 tablespoon butter • 2 eggs • 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 2 cups salted cocktail peanuts • 2 cups mini marshmallows Melt chocolate chips, chocolate and butter in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat. Beat eggs until foamy. Mix in sugar, salt and vanilla. Blend in chocolate mixture. Stir in peanuts and marshmallows. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. Chill 2 hours or until firm. Store in refrigerator; remove just before serving. |
Enjoy!
