NATIONAL ROCKY ROAD DAY

National Rocky Road Day is celebrated each year on June 2.  Today is all about a dessert that is made up with chocolate, marshmallows and nuts.  In the United States, the most popular way to eat Rocky Road is in ice cream!!
Although there are many variations, traditionally, Rocky Road ice cream was composed of chocolate ice cream, nuts, and marshmallows.  Today it is common to find it based on vanilla ice cream with chocolate chips, marshmallows and almonds.
There are varying accounts of the origin of this ice cream however it does look like it originated in the early 1900′s, so we know that people have been enjoying this delicious combination for many years.
