I’ve always been a fan of Soreen Malt Loaf – It was like a big treat when my Mum used to buy it when I was a child. I’ve passed that love onto my girls thankfully – We now have to buy Soreen in 2’s as they don’t last 5 minutes in this house. (Handy Tip: If you have a toddler who is a little ‘bunged up’ Malt Loaf can help speed up their digestion and make them a little more regular – Now aren’t you glad I shared that!?)
I will admit to never having thought about using Malt Loaf when cooking though – It doesn’t seem to last that long. Soreen challenged me to use a Malt Loaf in a recipe though so on with the challenge I went … I’ve gone quite simple with a Rocky Road – You still get the juicy tenderness and sweet taste of the Malt Loaf but also the famous taste of the chocolate and marshmallows. I didn’t expect to love this as much as I did though – Its very addictive – I reckon Soreen Rocky Road will now become a regular thing in our house!
Soreen Malt Loaf Rocky Road
Serves | 10+ |
Prep time | 10 minutes |
Meal type | Dessert, Snack |
Misc | Child Friendly, Pre-preparable, Serve Cold |
Occasion | Birthday Party, Casual Party |
Ingredients
- 1 Soreen Malt Loaf
- 8 Digestive Biscuits
- 150g Melted Milk Chocolate
- 50g Glace Cherries
- 50g Mini Marshmallows
Note
This recipe also works brilliantly if you add chopped nuts or coconut.
Directions
1. | |
In a large bowl, crush the digestive biscuits into small crumbs - a few small chunks are fine for texture | |
2. | |
Cut the marshmallows into halves and some quarters and do the same with the cherries - Add to the biscuits | |
3. | |
Chop the Malt Loaf into 1cm chunks - If you nibble on some you will be fine, there is plenty. Add to the rest of the ingredients in the bowl. | |
4. | |
Pour the melted chocolate over the ingredients and press down into a 9" greased square tin. I use a silicone one to make it easier to get out at the end. | |
5. | |
Mark out square portions with a kitchen knife before the mixture sets too hard - It will make it so much easier to cut later. | |
6. | |
Refrigerate for at least an hour (if you can leave it that long) |
Disclosure: I was sent Soreen Malt Loaves for inclusion in this recipe – I had free choice which recipe to make and genuinely loved the taste! For more recipe ideas and other Soreen products visit the website

This is a great idea! Would never think of using Soreen in this way.
I love a super easy recipe and was love the something extra Soreen brings to this Rocky Road x
Oh Oh oh ! Never used as an ingredient but now my head is like ooohhh!
Right now I have a half a malt loaf left.. About 3 glace cherries and reckon I can hunt down the rest but the big but is lacking chocolate. Though I have got half a bar of dark chocolate with ginger left….hmm..puts tv on pause…
Cor! I bet adding ginger gives it a real WOW! x
Mmmmm haven’t had malt loaf for years… was a childhood tea-time fave of mine. Such a great idea to bung some into a fridge cake… will def be trying that on for size 🙂
