I found the Baking Tag whilst watching Sophie and Lilly on YouTube, Sophie has created a tag where every week a YouTuber picks an ingredient which must become either the 'star of the show' or a small part of a recipe.
The first ingredient is Chocolate so of course I'm going to include my VERY chocolaty Rocky Road.
Looking forward to hear what the ingredient for next week is.
What would you make including chocolate?

Over the weekend I had a major urge to make some sweet treats, so I started off with something simple first.
Rocky Road fridge cake, who can say no to this chocolaty treat.
It only needs a few store cupboard ingredients and then you can pimp it up with what ever you fancy!
- Melt 125g butter and 300g chocolate (I used a mix of milk & dark)
- Add 3tbs golden syrup
- Then mix in 200g crushed up biscuits (I used digestives) and 100g marshmallows (either mini ones or cut up large marshmallows)
- This time I added a handful of white chocolate buttons, chopped up milky way bars and some of my favourite Terry's chocolate orange!
- Combine until all ingredients are covered in the melted chocolate and press into a 9" square tin
- Chill for a couple of hours and cut however you wish!
- ENJOY
I've included the recipe in the Baking Tag on YouTube.

For when you have nothing in your treat jar!
A quick and easy gooey, fudgy brownie made from store cupboard ingredients in under 5 minutes :)
All you need;
4 tbsp Flour
4 tbsp Brown sugar
2 tbsp Coca powder
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp milk (coffee or water)
1 tsp Chocolate spread
Pinch of salt
A mug
A microwave
Mix all the dry ingredients in a microwave safe mug.
Stir in the milk, oil and chocolate spread until it becomes a thick paste.
Microwave for at least one minute checking every 30 seconds (it may take a little longer than a minute, its a bit of trial and error)
The brownie is done when it is springy on top but still gooey inside.
I added some ice cream and chopped chocolate on the top... yum yum!
