Well, if you think you've had enough sweets over the holidays. . .think again! Valentine's Day is right around the corner and that is by far the "SWEETEST" holiday of the year. I made this Rocky Road Candy at Christmas and had to make 2 more batches while the kids were home. They are now working it off on their Wii Fit. . .but they were a huge success & super-duper easy! They'd be great to put a few pieces in a heart celophane bag or heart gift box for your sweeties on Valentine's Day!
I found this recipe in a "Best Recipes - Holiday Cookies" cookbook.
2 cups (12 oz) semi sweet chocolate chips
2 T butter
1 (14 oz) can Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 cups dry roasted peanuts
1 (10/5 oz) pkg mini marshmallows
Over low heat, melt chocolate chips and butter with the milk & remove from heat.
In a lg bowl, combine peanuts & marshmallows, stir in chocolate mixture & spread in a 13x9 inch baking pan lined with wax paper. Top the mixture with another piece of wax paper and use your hands to "compact" the candy. Remove the top sheet of paper.
Chill at least 2 hours. Remove from pan and cut into squares.

Besides the chocolate mixuture. . . you can definitely play with the "rocks" in the "road". . .try almonds and coconut or maybe some dried fruit like cherries!
