A delightful and festive no-bake treat combining white chocolate, marshmallows, pistachios, and cherries, perfect for holiday celebrations.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 500 g white chocolate melts/discs (or chips or block chopped) (Note 1)
- 2 tbsp grapeseed oil or other neutral flavored oil (Note 2)
- 2.5 cups marshmallows (most cut in half)
- 1 cup unsalted toasted pistachios (Note 3)
- 1 cup glacé cherries
- 0.5 cup unsweetened desiccated coconut (or finely shredded, not flakes)
Instructions
Preparation
- Lightly grease a 20cm/8" square pan with butter and line it with baking paper, leaving some overhang.
- Set aside around 8 of the best glacé cherries for topping and finely chop 1 tablespoon of the pistachios.
Making the Rocky Road
- Place the white chocolate and oil in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
- Stir the marshmallows, pistachios, glacé cherries, and coconut into the melted chocolate.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Tap and shake the pan to settle the mixture.
- Place the reserved glacé cherries on top and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
Chilling
- Refrigerate for about 3 hours or until firm. Lift it out of the pan using the baking paper overhang, then cut into pieces.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Can be frozen individually wrapped in cling film and placed in a sealed freezer bag. Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and feel free to customize nuts and dried fruits.
