Rocky Road, Chocolate Fridge Cake...

Melted chocolate with stuff in it in other words! Have loads of variations for this, but will blog the one I made today as a starting point. The idea was to use up some of the Easter chocolate mountain. If you add fruit to chocolate it becomes healthy, right?!

For about 16 bars you need:
300g chocolate (that's 2 large cadburys eggs and half a bar of dark chocolate to you!)
125g butter
3 tbsp golden syrup
200g chocolate digestives
80g white chocolate chips
25g chopped crystalised ginger
25g chopped glace cherries
25g mini marshmallows
25g hazlenuts

Begin by melting the chocolate, butter and syrup in a double boiler. Crush the biscuits in a bowl with a rolling pin (you want shrapnel not powder) and chop the ginger and cherries. Pour half the melted chocolate mixture on to the biscuits and fruit. Mix well. Pour into a swiss roll tin lined with cling film. Top with the hazelnuts and marshmallows and then pour over the remaining chocolate. Cover with clingfilm and chill for a couple of hours.
