Rocky Road Candies
It couldn't be easier to make this treat. Just melt chocolate chips and stir in peanuts and marshmallows.

This recipe was fantastic. Everyone who tried it had said it was great. It is such a quick and easy recipe. I used a 10 1/2 ounce bag instead of a 16 ounce bag of marshmallows.
Read MoreThis was a pretty decent and easy recipe. Although, the recipe calls for way too many marshmallows, and the sweetened condensed milk made it a little overly sweet for my taste. I would substitute some unsweetened evaporated milk next time, and cut back on the marshmallows. One thing I did that was good, I substitued broken graham crackers for the peanuts. It made it taste like little s'more nuggets. My family loved that.

These were wonderful. The only thing I would do different next time is to add less marshmallows.
Couldn't be easier to make and super-delicious. I made this for a coworker who can't have egg or gluten. She LOVES these! I do believe the marshmallow amount is a typo. I used 3/4 of a 10 oz bag and it was PLENTY. I also used half semi-sweet chocolate and 1/2 butterscotch morsels. So so good!
I lost my Rocky Road Candy recipe. This one was delicious and sooooo easy! Thank you, sara, for submitting it.
I dotn know what I did wrong but this was a gooey mess. THe flavor was great but it was impossible to cut into bars or whatever - you had to scoop it with a spoon - it was more like taffy or something. Oh well
very yummie, though i find whole milk works best, as no extra sugar is needed. WARNING cojack recommended adding graham crackers. if you do this, don't freeze. if you thaw, they become mushy, though you can eat them from the freezer.
This was an easy and delicious recipe. I added crushed digestives though to make it more of an original rocky road recipe. I've made it twice now. Very tasty!
Used 10 oz. marshmallows as others suggested and it was plenty! I will make these again but I think I will add some peanut butter to the chocolate- it just seemed to be the only missing thing.
Easy, quick, and delicious. Used less marshmallows and left out the nuts (allergies), but it came out great. Next time I would make it in a smaller pan, so the bars can be a little thicker.
These were great, everyone ate them up....but this is the same recipe that was submitted by Eaglebrand, even though I didn't use their product, I made the sweetened condensed milk from scratch using another recipe off this site.
The recipe is great! I did change things up abit. I used peanut butter, unsweetened evap. milk, coloured marshmellows( 1/2 of a small bag) and pure chocolate chips because i dont like the taste of semi-chocolate. They melt in our mouth and all over your hands..lol...very addictive!!!!
Amazing rocky road recipe! My family voted it "best tasting dessert" in our family-wide friendly competition this thanksgiving! Awesome! I added one thing: a few extra marshmallows scattered on the top and a drizzle of melted peanut butter!
This recipe is good with some changes. Instead of just chocolate chips I used amix of butterscotch, white chocolate and chocolate chips. Instead of sweetened condesed milk I used normal milk and less of it. After I poured it into the pan I sprinkled on butterscotch chips, peanuts and crushed animal crackers. With the changes it was good. Kinda like a s'mores. :)
This recipe is extremely easy and fast and the candy is delicious. I used about 10 ounces of marshmallows, which was an ample amount.
Yum! The only change I made was to use half of the peanuts specified and replace the rest with dried banana chips. They turned out amazingly well.
I use the colored marshmallows and walnuts or pecans. Everyone loves them.
Another one of my Christmas "must makes". It's nice that it is so easy and makes a lot. I only use the 10 1/2 oz size package of marshmallows though, and that's plenty. I melt the chocolate mixture in a large heavy saucepan on the stovetop rather than in the microwave.
quick, easy, yummy. my kind of recipe. did cut back on marshmallows. will try w/graham crackers as another reviewer suggested. sounds yummy too
Very easy and delicious. I gave it only 4 stars because I too thought it required WAY too many marshmallows. I only used about 5 ounces and found them overpowering. I did subsitute graham cracker for the peanuts, and it was wonderful! Thank you for the recipe!!!
Yummy. Did not use as much marshmallows as well and used graham crakers too.
I make this every year at CHristmas, ALWAYS a huge hit! Very easy and tastes great!
This recipe was super simple, quick, and tasty! The only thing I did differently was I only used a 10 1/2 oz bag of marshmellows since a lot of the reviews said 16 oz was too much. I do think that next time I would use unsweetened condenced milk because it was a little too sweet. Other than that these were so tasty and I will definately make them again! They would be great to make over the holidays and add them to Christmas baskets :)
The best and easiest candy I've ever made. Its fast and fool proof.
I was a little dissapointed that this was just a gooey mess. I gave it 5 stars anyhow because the "goo" was my fault. I used Evaporated milk instead of condensed....Big mistake. It still had a wonderful flavor and my husband ate and loved it anyway. I will definately make again but will follow directions more carefully :)
I rated this three stars because it asks for WAY too many marshmallows. I used maybe a third? You could use more, but it's just too much for us, and not enough chocolate with all of the marshmallows. Quick, easy, and something for the kids to help out with.
My husband requests this by name. He never requests anything, he likes it all. But this one is different. EASY TOO!
These are so good! I brought some to work with me to share with a few co-workers, BIG mistake as I was practically begged to bring them in on a regular basis!
I love this treat!! It's something my mom always made around the holidays when we were kids. And it's so easy to make!!
Really easy to make an everyone loved them! They were a Superbowl party favorite!
These are very yummy! They were enjoyed by all. Thanks for sharing!
Great Recipe, so easy to make, Thanks so much!!!
A great quick candy.
really easy to make! I substituted the peanuts for pretzels. Delish!
Very good!! I made this at Christmas and everybody loved it. Great recipe.
Made these back at Christmas, but just remembering to rate and review everything now. These were SOOOOOO easy to make and a huge hit with everyone that got them in their Christmas goody bags. I had a thought that at Christmas they seem to make the colored red & green (pastel) marshmallows and that would probably look really cool mixed in with some white ones. Definitely will make again.
I thought this was really good. I took out the nuts and it didn't seem like everyone else liked it as much as I did... but I'll make it again in the future!
OMG! This the best candy I have ever made! It was so good, that my fridge couldn't stop opening. The I brought to work, everybody wanna 2nd /3rd helping. I suggest one thing because it's too sweet, just put less condensed milk, then it taste so nice. Love the gooey-ness, and the crunchy-ness
This turned out like soup. I don't know what happened but it never set up. Don't use to milk you can make the chocolate creamier with just a tablespoon of butter.
I tried this recipe but instead of nuts I used the Heath English toffee bits. It was delicious.
I MADE THESE FOR MY 10 YR. OLD SISTER'S BIRTHDAY, SHE LOVED THEM!! I ONLY USED 10 1/2OZ BAG OF MARSHMALLOWS INSTEAD OF THE 16OZ. WILL MAKE AGAIN!!
These are great, I added the peanuts and marshmallows by feel rather than sticking to the specific measurements and it worked really well. I also made this adding a cup of peanut butter (I had tasted one before that had that pb taste to it) and it was wonderful!
This recipe is great. I love to make and pass out as Valentine's Day treats
It took me 5 minutes to make these. And for that they get a 5 star. I only used a 10oz bag of marshmallows and they were prefect.
These were good, but when I added the marshmallows they melted into the chocolate mixture. I added some more on top just so that you could tell they were in it, but I thin I like this one other recipe better for rocky road candy.
Great candy recipe. I received a lot of complements at our Dance Club. My Husband and I teach Ballroom & Swing and I make a lot of Desserts weekly. It's fun going through all of your recipes.
Wonderful. Extremely simple. My family totally loves it. Will probably have to make another pan before Christmas!! I too only used 10 1/2 ounce bag of marshmallows. Thanks for the recipe.
It was really good. I love marshmallows, peanuts, and chocolate, so the three together were delicious. I did use less marshmallows than the recipe called for though.
So easy and good. I made these for a football watching get-together and all the guys that said they don't like chocolate tried little slivers and went back for more. Will make these again.
This recipe was fabulous, I made one adjustment, I added 1 cup of raisins to it. I'm taking some as a house gift tomorrow...I'm sure it will be a hit. Thanks for sharing this recipe...
Was a hit at a bridal shower that I took it to. Everyone wanted the recipe. Only problem I had was that they were still a little gooey on the bottom, other than that they were perfect. I also cut back to a medium bag of marshmallows and it still seemed like there were too many.
Yum! Crunchy peanuts and soft marshmallows you can't go wrong.
Extremely quick and easy to make. My coworkers really enjoyed these!
So good, might use a bit less peanuts next time as it was a little crumbly.
Made a double batch at Christmas and they were great! EASY!!! (I did cut down on the marshmellows some.)
Yummy and very dangerous! This recipe will definitely become one of my "regulars". I love to bake, but liked that I can make this without having to turn on the oven. I only bought a 10 oz marshmallow bag, and didn't even use that up. Regardless, very good and easy recipe.
Turned out very tasty, BUT, It turned out really sticky. I followed recipes like it said. Just used the suggestion to use less marshmallows. Was the chocolate mixture supposed to be cooked to a certain temp to set up. I would give it 5 stars for taste but not setting up knocked it down to 3
I made these and put them in litte cellophane bags to give to colleagues at work. They LOVED them! There was definately nothing to bring home. I doubled the recipe and set it in a foil tray. I used a mixture of milk and dark chocolate just for preference but will definately be making this again. Thank you for the great recipe
Really easy and tasty! Like the some others I used less marshmallows and it was plenty sweet. I think anymore would have been too much.
Better with almonds as per original rocky road ice cream made by Dryer's in Oakland CA
This was super easy and super yummy! I took it to work and got rave reviews. Thanks for sharing! Will definitely make again.
excellent. i followed the advice of other reviewers, and didnt use as many marshmallows.
I made this (with the reduction in marshmallows) for our teenager meeting - and they all went home raving about 'Rocky Road'. This is so easy and the best I've tasted!
Loved it . Made a double batch so I cut in smaller square really nice thick bites . Used a few less marshmallows . Next batch will use pecans because I have a bunch left .
The first time I melted the chocolate and butter together and it got clumpy. So I called TollHouse and they suggested not to addhe t butter until the chocolate is melted. So I tried it again, melted the chocolate, then added the butter and it got clumpy again.
I have been making Rocky Road Fudge for over 30 years. It's the only fudge I make. I use 18oz of Hershey's Special Dark chocolate chips, one can sweetened condensed milk, 1 T. butter and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Along with 1/2 cup chopped pecans and 2+ cups mini marshmallows.
I don't own a microwave, so I melted chocolate and butter on the stove in a double boiler. I'm a very amateur Baker, and not a very good one at that. So when I get the choice to do non-bake desserts it's my go to! This was so simple and delicious! You can also add ingredients easily to fit what you like. Cherries would be really good in this think ?? something easy enough to play around with while still being a classic!
This is one of my holiday go to's when I need something quick to take to a party. Pilipino Christmas Party tonight.
I used 16 oz and the chocolate barely covered the marshmallows. It will not harden and it can't be cut.
I'm not sure how these taste, I made them and they were gone before I had a chance to try one. I'm making them again that's for sure.
amazing! Made them for Christmas and my family gobbled them all up. Also, very easy to make.
I haven't tried this yet but my mom has made this before and she said it was good great and awesome
Turned out great! Only thing I did different was I add in the marshmallows by handfuls until I had the right consistency.
First time making this and I can’t believe how easy it is! I agree with everyone else, way too many marshmallows..... and I left out the pnuts, but like the idea of crumpled up graham crackers! I didn’t freeze it tho, I stuck it in the fridge..... hope it hardens..... will have to see. Are we supposed to freeze it?
I haven't made fudge in a long time because I remember beating and beating and then not having it harden. Well this turned out perfect without all the beating. I used lightly salted roasted peanuts as I didn't find unsalted in the store. The salt was a nice counterpoint to the sweetness. I used fewer marshmallows - maybe a cup less because it was looking to marshmallowy. Highly recommend!!
Super Easy. Followed other readers advice, cut back on marshmallows, used real chocolate chips-a mix of flavors. Actually I’ve made this several times now. My suggestion is to use a spray like butter or coconut on the wax paper or cutting utensil so it doesn’t stick. I wear disposable gloves when mixing all ingredients and it helps to spray those a tiny bit too. Just my thoughts,no changes to recipe.
This was so delicious, and typically I'm not even that big of a marshmallow lover. My kids of course loved it too. I used a non-fat sweetened condensed milk that I had on hand, real butter, semi sweet chocolate chips, and almost a whole 10 ounce bag of mini marshmallows. I microwaved the chocolate chips, butter, and condensed milk all together in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, which is how I make fudge btw. After mixing in only 2 cups of peanuts which was plenty, and the marshmallows, I spread the mixture out into a casserole dish and sprinkled the remaining two handfuls of marshmallows on top and pressed them down. This recipe is a definite keeper, yum!
easy, easy and I decorated the top to look like Sunnyside up eggs! Everyone loves it!
First, half the amount of marshmallows and i more peanuts (I used organic roasted). Also best to use a greased glass Pyrex instead the wax paper which sticks!
This was a big gooey mess. The candy didn't harden and the marshmallows all melted into the chocolate. I used almonds - what a waste!
It was a sweet simple recipe to follow! It was quick and very yummy! I used walnuts in my rocky road, not a huge fan of peanuts! I have a question though, how long can this candy last for in the fridge? Thank you for sharing your recipe!
