Another Easter of way too many chocolate bunnies and eggs for the kiddies, so what to do with the excess. Last year it was chocolate chip cookies, but this year I decided to create this rocky road. I haven't a clue about the quantity, let me see...
two gigantic football eggs,
2 doz small chocolate egg size eggs,
two bunnies,
other assorted eggs & bunnies
all melted in a large bowl on a low heat in the microwave. Once melted I added:
Shredded coconut - approximately half a packet;
a packet of unsalted peanuts 200grams?;
turkish delight - about 200 grams (could have done with more of this too!);
marshmallows 1/3 of a very large packet (should have used more).
I lined a 9cm cheesecake tin with a freezer bag which I cut in half and poured my RR into that and rechilled in the fridge for about an hour. I turned it out on to a board and chopped into into nice big chunks.
Those chocolate eggs are much more palatable now and very morish - maybe I shouldn't have found something that we enjoy more than plain chocoate.

Ohmygawd! That looks (and sounds) INCREDIBLE!!
Thanks Niki, I made heaps but only have half of it left, hope I can replicate it sure will give it a try. One person who received some said it was better than Darrell Lea's - so I am mighty chuffed by her and your appreciation!
That's a great idea. I'll be remembering this come Halloween. I always end up with too much candy at these holidays... somehow.
