From Fran Mazza's book Feed Me Feed Me.
This is a recipe to use recipe loosely and experiment with whatever flavours you like . . . it's that easy.
Serves 15-20
Ingredients
- 750g good-quality dark chocolate,
- roughly chopped
- ½ cup freeze-dried raspberries, plus ½ cup extra for decoration
- 500g jumbo marshmallows
- 100g chocolate-coated hokey-pokey bars, roughly chopped
- ½ cup shelled pistachios
- ½ cup whole natural (raw) almonds
- 200g raspberry liquorice, roughly chopped
Method
Grease a 20cm x 30cm slice tin and line with baking paper. Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl and place over a pot of simmering (not boiling) water. Stir gently until melted and smooth. Place ½ cup of freeze-dried raspberries in a separate bowl along with remaining ingredients, and toss together. Pour melted chocolate over and mix well so that the ingredients are evenly dispersed. Pour into prepared slice tin and press out evenly. Sprinkle over remaining freeze-dried raspberries and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, until set. Cut as desired with a sharp, heavy knife.
