Who here loves rocky road? Me too and I know this one is a mouthful to say but Caramel White Chocolate Rocky Road Slice is all of those amazing things and more.
Love rocky road? Check out this Biscoff Rocky Road and my Malteser rocky road.
- Caramel – from Rolos and the flavour of the baked white chocolate
- White chocolate – see above
- Rocky Road Slice – a type of slice made up of chocolate marshmallows and nuts.
- Plus, a little salt because, well, salted caramel is life and for flavour balance.
I teased this recipe in my caramelised white chocolate post and this is now my favourite rocky road recipe.
While you can buy it, I urge you to make your own caramel chocolate. It’s very easy and just needs you to give it a stir every ten minutes over the course of an hour, that’s it.
Once that’s done, add some marshmallows, cashews, rolos and a little salt. Give it a mix and pour it into a loaf tin and leave it in the fridge to set and bam, caramel rolo rocky road coming at ya.
If you do caramelise your own chocolate, you can make it months in advance if you like. It will store in the fridge nearly indefinitely, like regular chocolate would.
Rocky Road is a favourite no bake chocolate slice the world over for its simplicity, flavour and giftability. This recipe makes a small batch of 8 slices, perfect for a little gift or a week of dessert.
Tips for white chocolate rocky road
- You can use regular white chocolate, uncaramelized but it won’t have the caramel flavour.
- You can use a store-bought caramel white chocolate like Valrhona Dulcey or Cadbury Caramilk.
- Vanilla or chocolate flavoured marshmallows work the best with the caramel flavour.
- Any runny caramel stuffed chocolate candy will work in place of the rolos.
- If using chocolate from it’s ‘set’ state, melt it in the microwave in 30 second increments, using a metal spoon to stir it very well between each. It should take no more that 90 seconds to 2 minutes to get it melted. It shouldn’t be overly hot to the touch.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the slice so that it doesn’t crack and break up. You can heat the knife under hot water, then dry completely, if it isn’t super sharp.
- Take the rocky road out of the fridge 15-20 minutes prior to cutting – this will also help to stop it from cracking.
- Rocky road will keep well in the fridge for a month or more, stored in an airtight container.
- Rocky road can be frozen as well, best done by wrapping each piece individually in plastic wrap then all into an airtight container – this will stop any freezer smells from getting into them.

Loved these. Just question for the future…how long can they be stored?
So happy to hear you love it Sharon and thank you so much for trying my recipe. Rocky road keeps very well. I’ve stored it successfully for a month before I gave in and ate it. It doesn’t tend to go off, so much as the texture may change over time. As with anything it’s best fresh but if gifting you can comfortably make it a week or more ahead.
I tried to do the caramelized chocolate but it didnt work. It was too dry and didnt remedy. Think it was something I did but not sure what?
Use a different chocolate and try playing with your oven temp. Your oven thermometer may be out of whack.
Made it for my Physiotherapy centre workers. They loved it, I felt I would add more salt if I made it again to offset the sweetness. I had added salted cashews already but that’s a subjective thing. Could only get Rolo chocolate in a block, they don’t seem to have the tubes in Sydney supermarkets anymore.m, but again there would be plenty of alternative 👌🏽
So happy they loved it Shona
Yummy ! Totally decadent ! Thanks Marie. Found Robin’s Kitchen……..good place to spend an hour or two.
thanks Pamela. Oh I know. I can get stuck looking around their store for ages.
Of course, I like rocky road, but you’ve elevated the idea to an absolutely new level! Love the addition of cashews and especially the caramelized chocolate; caramelized white chocolate is a genius idea. Needless to say, this looks and sounds fantastic!
Thanks so much Ben 🙂
