I always thought Rocky Road candy was named after the ice cream, but that’s not the case. Apparently, it appeared in Australia back in the late 1850’s, and that’s what inspired the ice cream. There’s a lot of controversy as to who was responsible for this candy-to-frozen-dessert conversion, but there’s no debating the fact that chocolate, marshmallow, and nuts are a fantastic combination, no mater the delivery system. Enjoy!
