When you make the full recipe, you cook them in two batches. If…

    Rocky Road Candy

    Rocky Road Candy is loaded with chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallows, and peanuts. What could be better than that? This recipe has been passed down through the generations of our family.

This is such a simple recipe it’s hard to believe that it is so rich and delicious. In a large pot add the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and peanut butter.

This recipe is great with hamburger, turkey, and even with Italian sausage. It’s all about what you have and what you are in the mood for. Start by turning your Instant Pot to the Saute setting on high. Add the oil to the Instant Pot and drop in your chopped onion and ground beef. When those…
