Equipment

  • 2 Silicon chocolate molds measuring 4cm or 1.5 inches, 15 domes per mold
  • 1 Heatproof jug to melt the chocolate
  • 1 Oven Mit the handle of the heatproof jug gets hot
  • 1 Chopstick handy to stir the melted chocolate
  • 2 Teaspoons to spoon the filling into the moulds
  • 1 Chopping board to support the mold when placing in the fridge

Ingredients

  • 300 grams/ 11 oz milk chocolate Note 1
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows Note 2

Instructions

Technique 1

  • Marshmallows into mould: place 3 - 4 mini marshmallows into each individual chocolate dome.
  • Chocolate: add the chocolate to a heatproof microwave safe jug. Microwave for 1 minute, then remove and stir (handle will be hot). Microwave for an additional minute, remove and stir, then microwave for 1 more minute (total time: 3 minutes).
  • Melted chocolate: working one dome at a time, pour the melted chocolate into the mould till it reaches the surface. Don't worry if a little excess flows out onto the flat part of the mould. You can cut this off once the chocolates are set.
  • Set: carefully pick up the filled chocolate mould with 1 hand either side and place into the fridge (either open it 1st or get someone to open it for you) for a minimum of 1 hour. Note 3
  • Serve and enjoy: once the chocolates are set, remove from the fridge, place mould on chopping board and push from the back to pop the chocolates out. Repeat for remaining chocolates.

Technique 2

  • Fillings: add the remaining mini marshmallows to the melted chocolate and stir to mix in together.
  • Moulds: use 2 teaspoons to spoon the combined wet rocky road mixture into the chocolate mould. Repeat to fill each dome.
  • Set: carefully pick up the filled chocolate mould with 1 hand either side and place into the fridge (either open it 1st or get someone to open it for you) for a minimum of 1 hour. Note 3
  • Serve and enjoy: once the chocolates are set, remove from the fridge, place mould on chopping board and push from the back to pop the chocolates out. Repeat for remaining chocolates.

Notes

  • Note 1 - Chocolate: You can use chocolate melts, chocolate bits or a block of cooking chocolate broken into pieces. Ensure you measure it using kitchen scales or purchase exact quantity ie 300 grams which is approximately 11 ounces.
  • Note 2 - Mini Marshmallows: these will be found in the cooking aisle as opposed to the sweets aisle. They come in a 100 gram packet and you can get pink and white or pastel colours. I like using approximately 3 mini marshmallows per individual chocolate and this is about 90 all together which is around 1 cup. You don't have to count them, approximate is totally fine! 
  • Note 3 - Mould info fridge: the silicon mould is flexible and curvy. If you place it onto a chopping board for support, you can then hold this in one hand and use your other hand to open the fridge. Otherwise you have 1 hand at each end of the mould and no hands to open the fridge. You can open it before putting the mould into the fridge or ask someone in the house to open it for you also.
  • Note - Melting the chocolate: some recipes that talk about melting chocolate, will say microwave the chocolate in 30 second increments. However, I have tried this and let me tell you nothing happens after 30 seconds!!! So I microwave for 1 minute, remove  (use an oven mit as the handle is hot) and stir, microwave for 1 minute, remove and stir, then return to the microwave for 1 final minute and stir after that time. It works perfectly!
