Rocky Road Christmas Candy (Kid-Easy)


 
It’s always a great tradition to bake/create with kids in the house.   Although Nat-Nat did not help me with this simple treat, (She opted to play outside with her friends) it was all the rave with her and her comrades.














Stuff you need –
12oz. Nestle Toll House Semi-sweet morsels

1/3 cup of Canola or vegetable oil
10.5oz package of mini-marshmallows

½ cup of chopped nuts (I used almonds)

Red and Green sprinkles for topping (optional)
 
What to do –
     1.    Line an 8x8x2 baking pan with foil. Lightly butter the foil and set to the side.

2.    In a large sauce pan, combine the chocolate chips and oil.  Heat over low heat.  Stir constantly until smooth.  Remove from heat.
 



3.    Stir in the nuts and marshmallows covering well.  Dump mixture into the foil and spread evenly. I topped mine with some red and green springles.  Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm.


 
4.    Grasp the foil and lift out of the pan.  Cut candy into squares and store covered tightly in the refrigerator.

Enjoy!
