Rocky Road Cluster Ingredient Notes

semi-sweet dairy free chocolate morsels. I purchase an Enjoy Life 5 lb bag from Amazon found here. It's a huge savings to buy these in bulk considering they stay fresh for months.
dark chocolate dairy free chocolate morsels; you can purchase the Enjoy Life brand here
salted peanuts
mini marshmallows
optional: add in gluten free pretzel pieces to the mix

How to Make Rocky Road Clusters

Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Melt the dairy free chocolate morsels in the microwave or over low heat on the stovetop.
Let the melted chocolate cool for 1 minute, then stir in the peanuts and marshmallows until well coated.
Drop by the spoonful onto the parchment-lined cookie sheets.
Let the clusters cool and harden at room temperature.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.

Recipe Tips & Variations

Add gluten free pretzel pieces for extra crunch and a sweet-salty balance.
Use all semi-sweet or all dark chocolate morsels if you'd rather not mix the two.
Let the chocolate cool for the full minute before stirring in the marshmallows -- this keeps them from melting completely.
Store clusters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
