Recipe by Wendy Quisumbing, Culinary Expert at Appliances Online

Ingredients

Crispy base:

- 50g butter

- 1 tbsp golden syrup

- 4 x 47g Mars bars, chopped

- 3 cups (100g) rice bubbles


Rocky Road topping:

- 200g dark chocolate, broken into squares

- 100g milk chocolate, broken into squares

- 150g mini marshmallows

- 200g assorted mini Easter eggs

- 100’s and 1000’s, to sprinkle

Method
  • Grease and line with baking paper a 30 x 20cm lamington pan, extending the paper on the long sides by 5cm. This will make it easier to remove from the pan.
  • In a large microwave proof bowl, add butter, golden syrup and mars bars. Melt on 50% power in 30-40 second bursts, stirring, until melted. Stir in the rice bubbles. Spread mixture into the pan, using slightly moistened hands to press evenly. Chill for 15-20 minutes or until firm.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium microwave proof bowl, combine dark and milk chocolate. Melt in a microwave at 50% power in 30 second bursts, stirring until melted. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Stir in ¾ of the marshmallows.
  • Spread evenly over the rice bubble base, top with remaining marshmallows and mini Easter eggs; gently press, sprinkle with 100’s and 1000’s. Chill until chocolate is set, before cutting into slices.
Recipe notes

- Feel free to add some nuts, dried fruit or shredded coconut. Instead of using a combination of chocolate, simply just use your preferred chocolate of choice.

- Store refrigerated in an air-tight container for up to 1 week.

- Instead of melting chocolate in the microwave, try melting the chocolate in a saucepan on an induction cooktop on level 2.
