Everyone who knows me knows how much I love bourbon biscuits and I won’t lie they were my breakfast over Christmas when I was up early with our puppy and of course they were being dipped in my cup of tea.
Now I know for some people they are just a simple chocolate biscuit but I do love them and think they are very versatile biscuit.
This recipe has been sitting in my drafts for the longest time and I made a decision this year that I need to get some new recipes tried out and this one seemed a perfect one for January.
Rocky Road can be any flavour and have whatever you like in it. I will admit this rocky road is super simple but super tasty.
I know dark chocolate isn’t everyone’s favourite but for this recipe it works because the biscuits offset the bitterness of the dark chocolate.
I always add a bit of extra biscuit and marshmallows to the top of this rocky road because well why not.
