Leave to set for 2 and a half to 3 hours

When fudge set,  melt chocolate in the microwave and smooth over the mix. Add Sprinkles

Leave to set * I forgot about the chocolate and let it set for too long so the chocolate was difficult to cut, resulting in jaggety edges * & slice.


A quick wee post in between essay writing (zzzz). So much work to catch up on, its just too easy to get distracted though...Made these to perk me up, defo enough sugar in these to keep me going :) Would recommend keeping them in the fridge after you slice them, dont taste the same left at room temperature. Base mix should be slightly soft and chewy with some crunch from the biscuits

Happy Baking!

Choctastic Hazelnut Slice

This along with rocky road is one of my favourite things ever. This recipe if from years ago when I was still in school and didnt even know rocky road existed (traumatising, I know!) Its the ultimate treat  but it is no friend to the healthy diet but its worth it! here goes..

What You Will Need:

200g Milk Chocolate

50g Butter

175g Condensed Milk

150g Digestives (Crushed)

25g Hazelnuts

Method:

Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt slightly in the microwave. Stir chocolate to help any lumps melt. Note: it should only be slighly melted at this stage

 Add the condensed milk and butter and place in the microwave until it is fully melted. Be careful not to burn the chocolate . A test test is always due at this stage ;)

Stir the mixture to make sure it is completely melted, now add the hazelnuts and crushed digestives

 Now once you have a firmer mixture you want to grease and line a baking tray and spread the mixture evenly into the tray

 Now grate up some chocolate and scatter on top.
Place in fridge to chill for at least an hour and a half










NOW EAT! :D

Enjoy!

Chocolate Fudge Rocky Road

Out of all the things I like to make, rocky road is by far my favourite. I absolutely love it, there are so many varying recipes. I have never tasted a batch of rocky road either bought from the supermarket or made by someone else to have the same universal taste. The version I am sharing with you is a little more rich as its based around a chocolate fudge recipe.



What You Will Need:

350g cooking chocolate
1 (397g) tin condensed sweetened milk
2 tablespoons butter
Crushed Digestives (as many as you like, depending on how rocky you like your road ;D )
100g marshmallows
50g glace cherries, chopped


Method:

Break up the chocolate and place into microwavable bowl, melt slighly and add in the condensed milk and butter.

Melt in the microwave on full power, opening often to stir it and to make sure it doesnt burn, which can happen all too easily if you dont keep an eye on it

When the chocolate fudge mixture is ready add the crushed biscuits, marshmallows and cherries and stir in. Add as many as you like, you can also add other ingredients such as nuts, maltesers m&ms, fruit pieces, white chocolate chips :)

Place the mix into a greased tin and place in the fridge for at least two hours

Slice the rocky into bite size pieces and enjoy! mhhm <3

Happy Baking!
