Gluten Free Christmas Rocky Road Recipe
These Christmas Rocky Roads are packed with the best festive treats - Christmas biscuits, chocolates, glacé cherries, mini marshmallows and festive sprinkles, all gluten free.
Servings: 16 squares
Ingredients
- 300 g milk chocolate (use dairy free if needed)
- 150 g butter (use vegan butter if needed)
- 45 g golden syrup
- 100 g mini marshmallows (Use vegan ones if needed)
- 200 g gluten free Christmas biscuits (I used a mix of gluten free spekuloos and gluten free Digestives)
- 100 g Glacé cherries (halved)
- 6-8 KitKat Festive Friends (or other gluten free Christmas chocs of choice)
- 2 tbsp Christmas sprinkles
Instructions
- Add the gluten free biscuits to a sealable sandwich bag and gently bash with a rolling pin - you want there to be a combination of everything from biscuit dust to lumps around the size of a 20p piece.
- Add the chocolate, butter and the golden syrup to a heatproof-proof bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until melted. Alternatively you can do this in a pan on a low heat on the hob.
- Add the crushed biscuits, cherries, mini marshmallows and most of the sprinkles (reserve some for sprinkling on top) to the chocolate mix and stir well until completely mixed.
- Pour the mixture into a lined 8-inch square baking tin and push firmly down. Gently press the KitKat Festive Friends into the top and sprinkle over the additional sprinkles.
- Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours - or overnight. Cut into 16 squares and then store in the fridge - this will last up to one week.
Notes
- Make them vegan by using dairy free chocolates and vegan butter, and ensure the sprinkles you use do not contain egg.
- Try customising these by adding pistachios, dried cranberries, different Christmas chocolates, gluten free shortbread, or even some gluten free pretzels.
- Once set they will last at least a week in the fridge, probably longer. But they're usually all gone by then in our house!
