You can easily make rocky road yourself, even if you do not know how to temper chocolate or simply do not want to bother. Either way, it will be better rocky road than you can buy in stores and you will love the dramatic slices.

<br />Large store-bought marshmallows snipped into quarters with an oiled knife or kitchen scissors are better—in looks, taste, and texture— than mini marshmallows here. And this may sound like heresy, but I like chewy commercial marshmallows better than the soft homemade ones. So give yourself permission to buy the marshmallows. Large pieces of walnuts are also advised for visual drama and for crunch.

<br />If you choose not to temper the chocolate, do cool it to 90º F as instructed before folding in the inclusions.
