Rocky Roads

Ingredients

100g/3 1/2 oz milk chocolate, broken into squares
40g/1 1/2 oz low fat margarine
1 tbsp golden syrup
100g reduced fat digestives (normal ones work just as well) - crushed
50g/1 3/4 oz mini marshmallows or roughly chopped larger ones (be careful - not many are vegetarian)
50g/ 1 3/4 oz dried fruit (raisins, chopped up glace cherries, sultanas etc)

Place the chocolate, margarine, syrup (and  marshmallows if you want a smoother mixture) in a bowl over a pan of hot water and melt gently.  Add the crushed biscuit and dried fruit and mix thoroughly.

If doing the smooth version roll into little truffles and roll in sprinkles, then place in a mini paper case.
If doing the rough version, leave the crushed biscuit lumpy and don't melt the marshmallow.  Grease a 7" square tin and line it.  Press the mixture into the tin and cool in the fridge. Cut into appropriately sized biscuits.
