Rocky Road Filled Easter Egg
- Yield: 1 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 100g chocolate, roughly broken up
- 250g chocolate, roughly broken up additional
- 100g roasted salted peanuts
- 50g shredded toasted coconut
- 100g red raspberry lollies or lollies of choice
- 200g marshmallows
Instructions
Then mix like this
- Place 100g of chocolate into bowl. 5 minutes / 50C / Speed 2. Scrape down sides halfway through. Melt longer if it has not melted completely.
- Pour the chocolate into a large 20cm Easter egg mould. Gently swirl it around to coat the whole mould. Allow the chocolate to pool at the bottom. Swirl again around the mould for a second layer of chocolate. Place into the fridge to set.
- Once set, gently remove the shell from the mould. Place it in a bowl. Place back into the fridge whilst preparing your rocky road.
- Place 200g chocolate into bowl. Speed 7 / 3 seconds. Scrape down. 5 minutes / 50C / Speed 2. Do not worry if there is unmelted chocolate. It adds to the rocky road.
- Pour chocolate out in a bowl. Add nuts, coconut, lollies and marshmallows. I do this rather than mix in the hot mixer bowl to avoid the marshmallows melting.
- Pour rocky road into prepared Easter egg shell.
- Place into the fridge to set for at least an hour.
- Wrap in cellophane and gift!
