Supplies
- Mixing bowl
- Heat-resistant container to melt chocolate in
- Spoon or spatula
- Baking paper
- Oven dish
- Serving dish or plate
Preparation
- Break the chocolate bars into pieces and melt e au bain-marie or in the magnetron (in short 30-second intervals, stirring well in between).
- Line a baking dish with baking paper.
- Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl and spread evenly over the bottom with a spatula.
- Spread the spiced nuts, speculaas pieces, meringues, mini marshmallos and tumtums over the still-soft chocolate. Press them lightly so they stick well but are still visible on top.
- Place the bowl in the refrigerator and let set for about an hour or at least until the chocolate has fully hardened.
- Remove the Rocky Road from the dish, remove the baking paper and break or cut into coarse pieces.
Serve
This Sinterklaas Rocky Road is a colorful showstopper on any holiday table. Serve the blocks with a cup of hot chocolate, place them on a bowl full of gingerbread cookies or wrap them in small bags as a treat for gift night. For an extra festive touch, drizzle some melted white chocolate over them or finish with edible glitter. The combination of crunchy, soft and sweet makes for pure magic. Exactly as St. Nicholas intended.
