Christmas Rocky Road - Nigella Lawson

1. 1

   Place the dark and milk chocolate pieces into a heavy-based pan. Add the butter and golden syrup and cook over a low heat to melt and combine.

2. 2

   Place the amaretti biscuits into a freezer bag and bash with a rolling pin to make crumbs of various sizes.

3. 3

   Place the Brazil nuts into another freezer bag and bash in the same way.

4. 4

   Take the pan of melted chocolate mixture off the heat and add the crushed biscuits and nuts.

5. 5

   Add the glace cherries and mini marshmallows. Fold the mixture carefully to coat all of the solid ingredients with the syrupy chocolate mixture.

6. 6

   Pour the mixture into a 25cm/10in x 30cm/12in greased and lined baking tray (Swiss roll pan) and smooth the surface as much as possible (although it will look bumpy).

7. 7

   Refrigerate for two hours, or until firm enough to cut. Dust with icing sugar, then sprinkle with edible glitter if you wish.

8. 8

   Remove the block of rocky road from the tray and cut into 24 rectangles.
