ROCKY ROAD BARK, Like Sanders
[From Chocolate Almond Bark, Like Sanders’]
By Gloria Pitzer, as seen in… Gloria Pitzer’s Cookbook – Best Of The Recipe Detective (Balboa Press; Jan. 2018, p. 233). [A revised reprint of Gloria Pitzer’s Better Cookery Cookbook (Secret RecipesTM, St. Clair, MI; May 1983, 3rd Edition).]
When you look at all the marvelous candies that Sanders offers, be sure to look for their [chocolate] bark. If you are not in an area where Sanders products are available, you can try my “poor man’s” version; which, while I was living in California, and couldn’t find Sanders products, was sufficient to remind me of the days when I had a Sanders right around the corner – and loved it!
INGREDIENTS:
12-ounce package Nestle’s semi-sweet chocolate chips
14-ounce can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups miniature marshmallows
INSTRUCTIONS:
In top of double boiler over simmering water, melt the chocolate and stir in the milk. When piping hot, smooth and completely melted, keep water in lower pan turned to lowest possible heat point and allow chocolate mixture to cook that way for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, and scraping down sides of pan often. Then remove from the heat and add walnuts.
Spread marshmallows over bottom of a greased 9” x 12” x 2” pan, pouring the chocolate mixture over that (covering all the marshmallows). Allow to harden at room temperature. Break into pieces and store in covered container away from warm places or humidity. Makes oodles!
