Ingredients

  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1/3 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or almonds)

Instructions

  • Start by placing the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave them in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be cautious not to overheat, as chocolate can burn easily.
  • Once the chocolate is melted, remove it from the microwave and allow it to cool for a minute. Then, gently fold in the mini marshmallows and chopped nuts. Make sure everything is well combined, and the marshmallows are evenly coated in chocolate.
  • Line your 9x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Pour the chocolate mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly with your spatula. Use the spatula to smooth the top, ensuring an even layer.
  • Place the pan in the refrigerator for about 1-2 hours to allow the candy to set. Once the chocolate is firm, you can remove the candy from the pan by lifting the parchment paper.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the Rocky Road Candy into squares or bars. Serve them immediately or store them for later enjoyment. These delightful treats are sure to be a hit!
