Growing up Rocky Road ice cream was my all-time fave, along with this heavenly chocolate candy my mom used to make with mini marshmallows and roasted peanuts, Enjoy!
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 1 (12 oz.) pkg. Ghirardelli dark chocolate wafers or chocolate chips
  • 2 T. butter
  • 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 1/2 c. dry roasted lightly salted peanuts
  • 1 (16 oz.) pkg. miniature marshmallows

Instructions

  • Line a 9×13-inch pan with wax paper; set aside.
  • In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and butter at 50% power stirring it every 20 seconds until melted.
  • Stir in sweetened condensed milk until well combined. Add the peanuts and marshmallows, stir to combine.
  • Immediately pour the candy mixture into the prepared pan. Using a rubber spatula, spread the mixture into an even layer.
