Just when you thought a classic rocky road recipe couldn’t get any more delicious, enter the humble Kinder chocolate bar. It completely transforms these indulgent marshmallow-filled slabs with a newfound creaminess! These Kinder rocky road bars are super easy to make, require no baking and even feature an amazing gluten-free alternative to the Kinder Bueno bar.
What goes in Kinder rocky road?
The beauty of rocky road is how easy it is to make a big batch. A few simple ingredients are combined together, spooned into a tin and left to set in the fridge. It’s really the ultimate low effort sweet treat! This Kinder rocky road recipe includes:
- Digestive biscuits (gluten-free)
- Melted butter and golden syrup
- Melted Kinder chocolate bars plus extra chunks for on top
- Chopped up Schar Melto bar (the BEST gluten-free alternative to Kinder Bueno!)
- Mini marshmallows
- Raisins, currants or glacé cherries (optional)
Can I swap for a darker chocolate?
Absolutely! If you’re looking to make your rocky road squares a little less sweet with a deeper cocoa taste, you could swap out a quarter to a half of the melted Kinder chocolate with dark chocolate.
How long will rocky road keep?
Another great quality of rocky road – it will likely be demolished long before you have to worry about it going off! Keep in an airtight container and these tasty slabs will last well at room temperature for up to a week, or in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
Can I freeze rocky road?
Yes – once sliced up, wrap each individual square in foil or baking paper and place them in a freezer bag/box. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. When ready to defrost your rocky road, thaw overnight at room temperature.

- 550 g Kinder chocolate bars
- 75 g unsalted butter
- 75 g golden syrup
