ROCKY ROAD CANDY
Found this years ago in a magazine, I have added the coconut to it so if you are not keen on that ingredient just leave it out. In The Netherlands I have a hard time finding mini marshmallows so I cut up large ones. Chilling time not included.

ROCKY ROAD CANDY JEANNE'S WAY
When I was young my mother shopped at a grocery store that had a candy shop connected to it. Every time I was at the shop I looked at everything they had but always ended up in front of the Rocky Road? To this day the only candy that I can remember being in the shop is the Rocky Road. And what's not to forget? You have milk...

Steps:
- 1. Open bags of Marshmallows and place in large bowl.
- 2. Butter well, a 9" by 13" pan.
- 3. Open all bags of Milk Chocolate and place in a microwave safe bowl and microwave 1 minute at 50% power 3 to 4 times while stirring each time until chocolate has melted. Watch carefully and do not overheat or burn. Note: if you want a very special Rocky Road (my favorite way to make this) then use Belgian Chocolate instead of the milk chocolate chips. I buy my Belgian chocolate from Trader Joe's and it is the large 1 pound bar of chocolate. I use 1 & 1/2 bars for a bag of marshmallows!
- 4. Add chopped walnuts to marshmallows.
- 5. Add all but about 1 cup of the chocolate to marshmallows and nuts.
- 6. Blend until well incorporated!
- 7. Pour mixture into buttered pan. Press mixture down as much as possible with large spoon or spatula.
- 8. Use remaining chocolate on candy and ice top as you would a cake.
- 9. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator to set.
- 10. Hints: Once candy sets it does not need to remain in the refrigerator and is easier to cut when it is at room temperature. If you give as a gift it is best to cut in hunks rather than pieces to stay fresh longer. This is not necessary if you give the whole recipe as a gift, which I do all the time. Freezes well!

Reserve about 1/3 of the chocolate in a separate bowl, and break up the biscuits and put into the 2/3s chocolate along with the mini marshmallows, and cut up chocolate bars. Put in the fridge for about 10 min. Take out and spread reserved chocolate over the top and put in the fridge for several hours or overnight. You can either add the M&Ms before you put in the fridge or after. Cut into squares.
Tips:
