As promised here is the Rocky Road and 3rd recipe I have made from my latest book purchase. These are not your average Rocky Road; they are a lighter, less dense version and unlike the ones I have made by Nigella you can actually eat more than one slice and not feel like you’ve had too much. Don’t get me wrong I love Nigella’s version, but if I am going to be honest and judging on my boys reactions, I would have to say that given a choice we would have these again. This Rocky Road consist of a wonderful combination of creamy, buttery chunks of shortbread, spongy marshmallows and crunchy rice krispies all fused together with chocolate caramel. I dare you to make these and stop at one!
Rocky RoadIngredients
3 Mars bars
100g butter
5 shortbread fingers
140g marshmallows
50g Rice Krispies
Chop up the Mars bars and place them in a small pan with the butter. Melt over a gentle heat. Break the shortbread into chunks and stir into the mixture with the marshmallows and Rice Krispies. Press the mixture into a lightly oiled 15cm-square tin and leave to set in the fridge. When set, cut into squares, turn out upside down and serve.

They sound extremely easy and yummy - though I'm not sure my teeth would survive all that sugary action!
Fabulous Maria! What a nice variation on the usual rocky road. Thanks for sharing. Lucie xx
Oh my goodness a recipe that calls for 3 mars bars, that sounds so wrong, yet so tasty!!!! lol
I might just have to make these for my son's birthday party this weekend Maria :-) I noticed this recipe was different to the usual rocky road recipe I make by Nigella, which I agree is delicious but very rich.
I do love the idea of adding mars bars, I bet they are delicious! xx
Nickki, your boys will love them and love you even more!

You just made me want to buy that recipe book. :-) I love your blog.
Looks like a delicious sweet treat! So many different tastes and textures!
They look fantastic. I like the idea of adding the rice crispies to them too, a bit more texture and crunch. Yum yum!
My mum makes something similar which she calls a mars bar slice. Will have to give this a try
These are perfect as a little treat all for me!
OMG...they look so darn good, my mouth is watering for some now.
If only I could stop at one - I think this is my downfall!
