For a special treat for Fathers Day 2014, here is my gift to all Dads out there! :) This recipe has been requested by so many that I just have to publish it now on my blog! This is just so quick and easy in the Thermomix. :)
For those that love my Clinker Rocky Road here is a cake version! When I saw a rocky road cake recipe arrive in my email – my brain nearly exploded!!… I just knew I had to do it with the ThermoFun Clinker Rocky Road, served with ice cream it is just heaven! Be warned only small portions are needed – it is very rich but oh so yummy! :)
For those who don't like Clinkers or can't get hold of them, Maltesers can be substituted.
ThermoFun – Clinker Rocky Road Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 200g Original Tim Tams biscuits, halved
- 180g Clinkers
- 500g chocolate melts (milk or dark)
- 300ml thickened cream
- 200g mini marshmallows
- 190g Raspberry lollies, halved
Instructions
- Line a 28cm springform cake tin with baking paper.
- Place half packet of Tim Tams into TM bowl and chop 2 sec / speed 6. Set aside.
- Repeat for other half packet. Set aside.
- Place Clinkers into TM bowl and chop 2 sec / speed 6. Set aside.
NB: you want the Clinkers to still be ‘chunky’. There may be a few that don’t cut well, you can chop in TM for 1 sec, but in my opinion if this happens I’d say just eat them!!! - Place chocolate into TM bowl and grate 10 sec / speed 9.
- Add cream and melt 5 mins / 100°C / speed 1.
- Set TM 2 mins / speed 3 / Reverse and while blades are moving, add Clinkers, marshmallows, Raspberries and Tim Tams a little at a time through hole in TM lid.
- Check all ingredients are mixed in with aid of spatula.
- Pour into prepared cake tin.
- Refrigerate until set.
To clean Thermomix bowl:
- Pour a glass of milk into TM bowl and mix 5 sec / speed 8.
- Heat milk 5 mins / 80°C / speed 4.
- Enjoy warm chocolate milk. No wasted chocolate!
Notes
* Run a knife under hot water to assist in cutting the cake.
* Keep refrigerated until serving.
* This is a very rich cake so small serves are recommended!
* Cake is suitable to freeze.

Thanks Fleur, I'm pleased you enjoyed it. :)
Leanne Moon says
I made this quite a few times last year and it was a hit every time. I lost the recipe and have spent ages searching through paperwork and different sites and I'm so happy I just found it tonight. Yay for thermofun.
thermofun says
Phew!!! It would be a sad Christmas without Clinker Rocky Road Cake! :)
Peggy Ashley says
I saw this recipe in facebook & was really excited because I'm always wanting something new to take to church. But I'm not sure really how to make this because all the measurements are not in English. I guess that's what I was meaning. I live in America. But it really looks great!
Sorry this ol' lady is too silly to figure this out.
thermofun says
Hi Peggy, try this site and it should be able to help you I hope with converting measurements. https://whatscookingamerica.net/Q-A/equiv.htm
I hope this helps. Enjoy! :)
Petrice Cramer says
Made this last night, exact measurements and it is a very sticky texture, seems very mousse like because of the cream, was in the fridge overnight. Very rich indeed!
thermofun says
yes it is very rich Petrice! Small pieces!!
Michelle Warren says
i have made this a few times now for special occasions. Everyone has loved it and thought it was very special.
thermofun says
Thank you Michelle! It certainly is a very special one. :)
Gill says
Yes, I am able to get Maltesers. Have never heard the term "clinkers' before but thanks for explaining. Will try this recipe soon. Thank you
Gill says
Hi there, this looks delish! Just a question - What are "Clinkers"? Not sue tit's an Australian thing?
thermofun says
Yes Gill they are Australian. They are basically candy covered in chocolate. I do know that people sub them for maltesers. Are you able to get these?
Cathenian says
Any idea how long it takes to set?
Made it this evening and keen to take to work as a treat
thermofun says
Not very long at all Cathenian! 1/2 hour to an hour max! :)
nicole says
Tried it.. but not setting as well as id like. Very moussey like. Not a cake. Any suggestions?
thermofun says
oh no Nicole that's a shame. I'm not sure what would have happened. How is it now 24 hours later?
charleen says
How long would this keep?
thermofun says
Depends if I'm around or not Charleen! ;) It does freeze well by the way. But if kept in fridge I'd guess up to a week. Enjoy! :)
Bev says
Just found your website and this amazing recipe, will definitely be trying it out on my grandchildren. Ticks all the boxes. Will probably make it in a slice tin, easier to cut into small portions.
thermofun says
That's a very good idea Bev with using a slice tin, as it is very rich but oh my oh my soooo delish! :)
Nat says
Thanks for the recipe! Am making this now. Sooooo decadent!
thermofun says
Yes it is very decadent Nat! Enjoy! :)
