There’s only one thing I don’t like about store bought rocky road, and that’s those fake sugary glace cherries they use. Bleh. Make your own I say, and use chunks of delicious Cherry Ripe instead. So much better.

You can use any nut you want, toasted hazelnuts or almonds go nicely. Substitute the bounty for turkish delight or other chocolate bar. Pop it in a clear bag and tie a pretty bow around for Christmas or other gifts and treats.

Tip: Cut into triangles using a warm knife
