Marvellous Rocky Road

This Marvellous Rocky Road recipe spells F-U-N.

Stuffed with M&M candy, roasted peanuts, mini marshmallows, chewy jellies AND popping candy, it’s a childhood delight.

The best part? It only takes about 10 minutes to make!

I do love a colourful treat. And I’m a HUGE rocky road fan. I’m not sure where the obsession started but it’s been going for three years strong now.

I’ve made Smores Rocky Road and Peanut Butter Rocky Road and even Rolo Rocky Rocky Road. I’ll take any excuse to make a rocky road treat.

But THIS rocky road 👆🏻, this one is definitely the most colourful.

Here in Australia, we have a chocolate bar called Marvellous Creations. Cadbury knows how to make a sweet treat and their Jelly Popping Candy Beanies flavour is my all-time favourite.

So I wanted to take that inspiration and transform it into a delicious rocky road.

Spoiler alert: It worked. This Marvellous Rocky Road is extra special. It has the classic rocky road combo of peanuts, marshmallows and chocolate.

But then there’s extra chew from the lollies, extra crunch from the M&M’s and a magical popping sensation from the popping candy.

This rocky road is perfect for sharing. In fact, I highly recommend it because it’s just TOO good not to share. And it’s also TOO hard to resist.

7 ingredients + 10 minutes of prep time = oodles of Marvellous Rocky Road. Let’s do this!
