Ingredients

Scale
  • 600g (21 oz) high-quality white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup shelled pistachios (unsalted)
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1 cup crispy rice cereal
  • 1/4 cup glacé cherries, halved (optional for extra color)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Baking Tin
    Line a 20cm (8-inch) square baking tin with parchment paper. Ensure the paper hangs over the edges slightly so you can easily lift the rocky road out once it has set.
  2. Step 2: Combine the Dry Ingredients
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, dried cranberries, pistachios, desiccated coconut, and crispy rice cereal. Toss them gently together so the colors are evenly distributed.
  3. Step 3: Melt the White Chocolate
    Place the chopped white chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Melt it over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.
  4. Step 4: Mix Everything Together
    Pour the melted white chocolate over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Using a spatula, fold the mixture quickly and gently until every piece is well-coated in chocolate. Work fast so the chocolate doesn’t begin to set before you are finished.
  5. Step 5: Press into the Tin
    Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking tin. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to press it down firmly and smooth out the top. If you saved any extra pistachios or cranberries, sprinkle them on top for a beautiful finish.
  6. Step 6: Chill and Set
    Place the tin in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is completely firm. Once set, lift the block out using the parchment paper and slice it into 24 even squares using a sharp knife dipped in hot water.
