Directions
Line the base and sides of an 8 x 8 or 9 x 9 baking pan with wax paper and set aside.
Roughly chop macadamias, marshmallows and candy and place in a glass or stainless steel bowl. Add the
toasted pistachios and cranberries and mix gently.
Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for approximately 45
– 50 seconds, then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds then stir again. Repeat the process if
necessary, until all the chocolate is evenly melted and has reached a relatively thin consistency.
Pour the melted chocolate over the fruit, nut and candy mixture and mix well to ensure all pieces are
thoroughly covered in chocolate.
Pour into the prepared pan and then level with a spatula.
Refrigerate for at least a couple of hours (preferably overnight), then remove from the fridge, place on a
cutting board (the paper will be very easy to peel off) and cut into your desired shapes and sizes. This will
keep very well for at least two weeks, though it will soften slightly at warm room temperature.
*If you require a longer shelf life for your rocky road or want to make this nut free, replace the nuts with
different types of dried fruit or candy.

OH MY GOODNESS!!
Not gummy bears - fruit jelly candy. Also called "Pates de Fruits," sometimes shaped like slices of citrus
fruit.
Lovely recipe and now I'm so intrigued I'm going to the grocery to get some white chocolate! Think I might
use dried fruit instead of the candies though:) so I won't feel so like I'm flunking my diet lol!
Just had to leave a comment - these are GORGEOUS! I can't wait to try them. My family gathers every
Thanksgiving and I'm going to add these to my "must make" list this year. Thanks so much for sharing
them.
Did you ever find and try the Jacques Torres repice in the NYT? I have it but haven't tried it yet. I tried the
Ad Hoc repice that had been posted on Serious Eats and thought they were good, but not the "ultimate"
either. Could have been the humidity that day, however.
