My first Rocky Road Recipe

Decided to make some Rocky Road this weekend. I normally throw things together but I actually took note (well, my daughter took note) of what I put in in case it was any good. The family ate it all so I'm assuming it was good. Here it is.

Rocky Road #1

12 oz milk and dark chocolate
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon golden syrup
1 tablespoon double cream
8oz ginger nuts
1 oz butter 
4 oz marshmallows (I had large and small)
4 oz cherries 

Melt the chocolate - we do it in a bowl over a pan of hot water, but use your usual method, I know some people use a microwave. Add the syrups, cream and butter. Melt together then add the biscuits, broken into small pieces, and the marshmallows and cherries. Place in a baking tin (I lined mine with baking parchment/greaseproof paper) and allow to cool. Once it's cool you can put it in the fridge. Cut into pieces when cold. 

This is a straightforward recipe. My son and daughter were in the kitchen at the time so wouldn't let me put in any extras like stem ginger or nuts. If you try it let me know what you think. If you've got recipes feel free to share them here. Let's celebrate Rocky Road!
