I've not done Rocky Road before.
Which biscuit is best to use - I've seen recipes that use Rich Tea biscuits, and other recipes use Digestive biscuits.

I use Rich Tea and Tesco Value ones at that. If you use good quality chocolate I don't find the quality suffers for using a cheaper biscuit.

My recipe I use is

125g unsalted butter
300g dark chocolate
3 tbsp golden syrup
200g Rich Tea biscuits
100g mini marshmallows plus a handful extra.

Melt butter, choc and syrup
Bash up biscuits
Mix biscuits into melted choc
Add marshmallows
Tip into 9 inch square tin and smooth down with a wet spatula
Dot the top with the extra marshmallows and push down
Chill for at least 2 hours in fridge.

I've no idea how it tastes as I'm a veggie so don't eat it, but it goes down a storm at every cake sales I do it for. I sometimes substitute half Oreo cookies and that gets rave reviews.

I've used Mars bars and shortbread fingers in my version (well Hairy Bikers!)

I use Digestives, Asda Smart Price.

I also chuck raisins and glacé cherries in mine.
