Run, don’t walk for this irresistible Caramilk Rocky Road loaded with crunchy Maltesers and chewy caramels.
This is my new favourite addition to my every growing list of rocky road recipes. Not that I’m obsessed or anything. Truth be told, I’ve been wanting to have a crack at some Rocky Road ever since I shared my Really Raspberry Rocky Road recipe on my Facebook page asking everyone’s favourite Rocky Road ingredient and Leah mentioned Rice Bubbles. Thanks Leah, it’s a genius addition!
I’m a bit of a survivalist/tight ass when it comes to my favourite chocolate bars and when they are on special, I stock up as if an apocalypse is coming. Obviously I shouldn’t joke about the apocalypse because after this year’s bush fires and the current pandemic, it’s been just like living in an apocalypse.
When it comes to sad or bad news, I tend to wear my emotional raincoat, stick my head in the sand and then bake or in this case, make my feelings. So with my heavy heart, I turned to my apocalyptic stash of chocolate, got myself some rice bubbles, upcycled some left over fudge and away I went. Of course, after I made my feelings, I ate them and I must warn you that this rocky road is totally irresistible!
Now I know that Caramilk isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but don’t worry too much because even if you make this with white or even milk chocolate, it will still be scrum-diddly-umptious. Just don’t expect to be able to stop at one piece, ‘kay?! And don’t say I didn’t warn you!
And if you need more Caramilk in your life be sure to check out my Caramilk Twirl Brownies and this scrumdiddlyumptious Caramilk Fudge.
