The Twelve Days of Holiday Treats!
Once again, this year, from December 1-12th I’ll post a new holiday treat recipe every day – inspiration for your holiday entertaining!
The recipes I’m sharing are small batch (perfect for this year of smaller gatherings – each recipe makes 1-dozen) that are simple to prepare and that use everyday ingredients and equipment so hopefully you’ll be able to whip up any of these on a whim.
Today’s treat is a mash-up of two childhood favourites – one of which I only ever remember getting at Christmas (Rocky Road) and the other which we only really ate at birthday parties (Chocolate Crackles). Rocky Road Chocolate Crackle Slice is a lightened up version of Rocky Road that is easier to make, ready to eat sooner (!) and is the prefect recipe for the kids to help with. Watch out though, it’s a bit addictive!
I know these might be a little child-like (it’s the coloured marshmallows, right?) but these really taste great and in normal times, would look lovely on a holiday sweets buffet. This year, as we all (well, those of us in countries where Covid is not yet under control. Sigh) celebrate the holidays with smaller gatherings, this small batch is enough to share some with neighbours or friends (safe porch drop off recommended) and to keep some for yourself. You might regret giving any away though 😉
