ROCKY ROAD BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter an 8-inch square pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides; butter the paper. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, place butter and cocoa; heat over low, stirring constantly, until butter has melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat; stir in sugar, egg, flour, milk, and vanilla until combined.
• Spread mixture evenly in prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove pan from oven; sprinkle top evenly with marshmallows, walnuts, and chocolate chips. Return to oven, and bake until marshmallows puff, about 3 minutes. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack, about 1 hour. Then refrigerate until topping hardens, about 1 hour. Use paper overhang to lift from pan; cut into 12 bars.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until fragrant and slightly darkened, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Place 30 mini foil baking cups on a rimmed baking sheet. Place 1 toasted almond in bottom of each cup. Carefully pour enough chocolate into cups to fill two-thirds of the way, stirring chocolate frequently while filling to ensure it stays tempered. Press 2 marshmallows into each cup to partially submerge in chocolate, then press 1 more toasted almond and several pieces of pretzel into each cup.
• Let stand until chocolate is hard and dry, about 2 hours. Serve, or store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 weeks.
