Plastic Free Rocky Road — Get Earthed. (2024)

FRUIT & NUT ROCKY ROAD

A trip to a bulk health food store with your produce bags and jars to pick all your chocolatey, nutty and fruity favourites and you have yourself plastic-free Fruit & Nut Rocky Road.

What You Need

• Chocolate! I used dark chocolate buttons & a chunk of milk chocolate

• Turkish Delight

• Dried fruit like apricots/peaches/blueberries

• Nuts like macadamias/pistachios/cashews

• Coconut

1. Pop the chocolate in a heat proof bowl/saucepan and melt over a larger simmering saucepan on the stove. Don’t let the bowl touch the water.

2. Once melted, stir in the other ingredients, leaving a few to sprinkle on top!

3. Pour into a baking paper-lined tray (I make sure I use ‘Home Compostable’ paper so I can rip it up and pop it straight in my compost bin!)

4. Sprinkle over the final ingredients and pop in the fridge for 2 hours to set.

5. I gifted my rocky road by cutting it up into squares and popping it into a large repurposed glass jar and tying a little bow with brown string I had saved from gift wrapping!
