You
know that I have this continuing obsession with variations of Rocky
Road. The last version was earlier this year using shortbread with
freeze-dried raspberry and strawberry pieces.
Here's
my latest effort, using Turkish Delight cut into small squares,
pistachios and apricots, both finely chopped - 150g/5oz of all three,
replacing the classic Brazil nuts, glacé cherries and mini
marshmallows.
If
you're not familiar with the recipe then check out the Easter label where you'll also find a list of suggestions to “Design your
own Rocky Road”.
I
have a confession to make – I added mini marshmallows too – any
true Rocky Road purist knows it has to have marshmallows!
I
hope you like what you see :
An
aside … this week was my regular visit to my Beautician (and
friend) – hey a girl needs all the help she can get. Anyway she
asked what was on the “class menu” - I always begin at the end –
I'm strange that way. I didn't get any further - to say I received a
rapturous reaction puts it mildly – the Middle Eastern flavours are
a real hit and I had no idea so many people loved Turkish Delight –
note to self for my “home-made” Christmas Gift List!
