This quick and easy Turkish Delight Rocky Road is a delicious chocolate treat and also a great gift for friends.
I love making Rocky Road and this Turkish Delight version is so tasty!The combination of almonds, Turkish Delight, marshmallows and chocolate is such a hit.
For this recipe I used both milk and dark chocolate because I like the flavour and balance of the two together, but you can use what ever chocolate is your favourite.
Rocky road is so versatile! You can use whatever ingredients you have on hand: nuts, dried fruit and even chocolate bars like Turkish Delight. Check out my caramilk or white chocolate and pistachio versions.
I like to cut the Turkish Delight into large slices so that when you cut up the Rocky Road (once it has set), you can still see the nice dark red pieces inside.
How to make turkish delight rocky road:
This recipe is so easy to make, first of all melt the chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave. It takes around 2 minutes but keep checking on it so it doesn't burn. Once it is melted stir together and let it cool a little bit.
Add the chopped roasted almonds, Turkish Delight and marshmallows to the melted chocolate and stir together. Pour into a lined baking tray and chill in the fridge until set. This takes about an hour.
Once set cut into pieces and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
This recipe is a great one to get the kids involved by stirring it all together and adding ingredients into the bowl. It’s also one of my favourite recipes to make because it’s so tasty licking the bowl and spoon afterwards.

Thank you so much, Deborah. The Turkish delight version is one of my favourites too!
Rocky Road is best kept in the fridge but you can enjoy it at room temperature. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks or at room temperature for 1-2 weeks. It can also be frozen, just let it come up to room temperature before eating.
Turkish delight or lokum (/lɔ. kʊm/) is a family of confections based on a gel of starch and sugar. Premium varieties consist largely of chopped dates, pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel; traditional varieties are often flavored with rosewater, mastic gum, bergamot orange, or lemon.
You can store them in the refrigerator but you may find that over time they start to go a little more chewy as the marshmallows will start to dissolve slightly and the amaretti can soften a little (due to fridges being cold but generally very slightly damp) but will still be fine to eat. You can also freeze the bars.
Our original Rocky Road is still as popular as ever with sweet marshmallows, crunchy nuts and red wine jelly covered in delicious milk chocolate. Hide it somewhere if you don't want to share! Ingredients: Milk chocolate, marshmallows, red wine jelly, peanuts, almonds.
Stir to coat all the pieces in the chocolate then pour into your prepared tin in an even layer. Don't press it down too much, you want quite a bumpy 'rocky road' surface. Leave to set in the fridge for 1-2 hours or overnight then dust with icing sugar and chop into bars or squares to serve.
In most of the world, "Aplets & Cotlets" were based on a treat called lokum, a word derived from Arabic, but the British and Americans know it as "Turkish delight."
Is Turkish Delight Good For You? No matter which way you look at it, Turkish delight isn't going to be the healthiest of foods - after all, it's primarily sugar! There's a reason why the Turkish name for Turkish delight is lokum, which can be translated to a morsel of a mouthful.
Haci Bekir is a legendary name in the world of Turkish delight, credited with popularizing this delectable confection. Founded in 1777, Haci Bekir has been dedicated to producing high-quality, authentic Turkish delights for centuries.
Turkish Delight, also known as Lokum, is a popular confectionery originating from Turkey. In simple words, it is a jelly-like soft nougat bar mainly made from starch and sugar and typically flavoured with rosewater, lemon, or other fruit flavours.
Halal sweets are made without using ingredients that are not permitted in Islam. This includes things like alcohol, gelatin, and certain types of flavouring. While many different halal sweets are available, some of the most popular include Turkish delight, kunafa and halva.
Be careful heating your chocolate – If you find that your rocky road is a bit greasy or the chocolate is feels grainy the the chocolate has possibly seized; this usually occurs when the chocolate is overheated.
Every batch of Tillamook® Rocky Road Ice Cream features a chunky blend of almond pieces and pillows of mini marshmallows against a backdrop of our luxurious chocolate ice cream. Then, we add extra cream, not air, for exceptionally smooth consistency.
Our answer. Rocky Road bars do keep fairly well and if stored in an airtight container in a cool place they will keep for up to one week. If it is very warm you could store them in the fridge though do let them sit out of the fridge for about an hour before serving as they taste better if not completely chilly.
The original Rocky Road ice cream used chocolate ice cream with no chocolate chip pieces. By blending numerous ingredients such as chocolate ice cream, nuts, and marshmallows, the rocky road flavor was one of the first types to mix in the materials together.
Fluffy marshmallows, crunchy nuts (optional!), and chunks of biscuits coated in melted chocolate - it's as simple as that. This easy Rocky Road recipe is simple to throw togethher and the best bit is you can personalise your cake by mixing and matching the ingredients with your favourite sweets and biscuits.
