How to Make Chocolate Rocky Road

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6).
  2. Spread 1/4 cup chopped chili pieces, 1/2 cup mixed nuts, and 1/4 cup mixed seeds on a baking tray. Bake for 5 minutes, or until toasted. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then roughly chop.
  3. Melt 200g dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring until smooth.
  4. Remove from heat and set aside.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped dried fruit (e.g., cranberries, cherries) and 1/2 cup chopped nuts. Reserve a large handful for garnish, and mix the rest into the melted chocolate.
  6. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Spoon the chocolate mixture onto the tray and spread evenly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Sprinkle with the reserved fruit and nuts.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until set.
  9. Once set, break into bite-sized chunks.
