Cardamom Rocky Road

Cardamom Rocky Road

By Ian Hempill - Herbie's Spices

This decadent version of the rocky road was created for Herbie’s 18th birthday party. Filled with pistachios, macadamias, Turkish delight and cardamom-scented chocolate, then topped with a layer of Herbie’s magical spice dust, it is the ultimate indulgence and brings back many memories of the celebration when we make it!

Rating

 300 g Milk chocolate
 200 g Dark (70%) chocolate
 ¼ tsp Herbie’s Spices Ground Cardamom
 125 g Pistachios (unsalted, unshelled), roughly chopped
 100 g Macadamias (unsalted), roughly chopped
 200 g Good quality Turkish delight (rose, orange blossom, mint or a combination), cut into 1cm pieces
 2 tsp Herbie’s Spices Spice Dust

1

Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a glass bow with cardamom.

2

Set the bowl over a saucepan a third filled with water and turn to high heat.

3

Bring water to the boil then turn off, allowing the residual heat to melt the chocolate. Stir with a spatula for even melting.

4

Prepare a 20cm square cake tin by lining with baking parchment.

5

When chocolate is melted, stir through the nuts and Turkish delight until well combined.

6

Pour into the prepared tin and refrigerate for 4 hours until firm.

7

Cut into desired size pieces.

8

Using a small sieve, dust the rocky road with spice dust before serving.
