    It's almost Easter which means it's time to eat ALL the chocolate!

    And what better way to do that, than to combine all your favourite Easter eggs into one delicious rocky road recipe.

    It's no secret that I adore rocky road.

    The ease of making it, the deliciousness of eating it - it's all just so good.

    And while my White Chocolate Rocky Road and Clinkers Rocky Road are my go-to recipes during the year, when it comes to Easter I am ALL ABOUT EASTER ROCKY ROAD!

    Why You're Going To Love This Recipe

    This is one of my all-time favourite Easter recipes!

    Here's what makes it so good:

    • Kids Recipe - My son and I love to make it in the lead up to Easter as a fun little activity.
    • Great For Using Up Leftover Easter Eggs - this recipe always gets a workout after Easter as a great way to use up leftovers!
    • Versatile - Mix and match with absolutely any of your favourite Easter eggs. I love to use marshmallow eggs, Creme Eggs, and mini speckled eggs, but you can use any flavour eggs you like.
    • Easter Gifts - Make a big batch of Easter rocky road and give it as gifts to your neighbours, friends and family.

    What You Need

    Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!

    Note: please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method:

    Chocolate, marshmallow eggs, Creme Eggs, lolly raspberries and mini speckled eggs on a board.
    • chocolate - use a good quality dark chocolate (or substitute with milk chocolate). The better the quality of chocolate, the better your rocky road will taste. I like to use Cadbury, Nestle, Hersheys or Lindt.
    • marshmallow eggs - I use Cadbury marshmallow eggs that can be bought from any supermarket in Australia. If you can't find this brand you can use any marshmallow filled Easter egg or even just regular marshmallows.
    • mini speckled eggs - these come in a variety of brands such as M&Ms and Cadbury. They are pastel coloured eggs with a hard candy shell and chocolate inside.
    • mini Cadbury Creme Eggs - love them or hate them, these give this rocky road recipe a deliciously sweet, oozy, gooeyness.
    • lolly raspberries - these are a popular soft candy in Australia. If you can't buy gummy raspberry lollies, you can substitute with any soft gummy candy you like.

    Step By Step Instructions

    Step 1 - Melt

    Melt the chocolate in the microwave on 50% power for 3-4 minutes or until just melted.

    See my tips for melting chocolate in the microwave here.

    If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the chocolate in a double-boiler on a stove-top or in a Thermomix.

    Step 2 - Mix

    Mix through the chopped marshmallow eggs, the mini Easter eggs, Creme Eggs and the raspberry lollies until well coated in chocolate.

    Step 3 - Chill

    Working quickly, pour the mixture into a prepared tin and chill in the fridge for 2 hours or until set.

    The Best Easter Eggs To Use In Rocky Road

    This recipe is SUCH a great way to use up any leftover Easter eggs you have lying around. And yes, absolutely, you can substitute any of the recommended Easter eggs for your own favourites.

    In this version I used speckled mini eggs, but you could easily replace these with crispy M&Ms or solid Easter eggs.

    I absolutely love Cadbury Creme Eggs ,but if you're not a fan, simply swap them for caramel filled eggs, Turkish Delight eggs or any other filled mini eggs you like!

    When using filled eggs or Creme Eggs, ensure they are the mini eggs, as the larger ones will be too runny in the rocky road.

    Note: if you live in a warm climate, pop your filled eggs into the fridge prior to making the rocky road. This will ensure they don't melt when you mix them through the chocolate.

    I also used Cadbury marshmallow Easter eggs, but if you want to save a little bit of money, plain marshmallows will work beautifully too.

    Expert Tips

    Quantity of chocolate

    The key to a really good rocky road is to make sure you use a good quantity of melted chocolate. I love to pack my rocky road full of yummy add-ins, but if you don't have the right chocolate-to-add-ins ratio going on, it will all fall apart in one big mess! This rocky road has the perfect balance of delicious add-ins and melted chocolate.

    Type of chocolate

    Use a good quality chocolate for melting. The melted chocolate is the main ingredient, so choose a good quality brand (such as Cadbury, Nestle, Lindt or Hersheys.

    Adding coconut oil

    I like to add a little coconut oil or vegetable oil when melting my chocolate. This helps to make it easier to cut the rocky road into pieces once chilled.

    Preparing the rocky road

    When making rocky road, it's important to work fast!
    The chocolate will begin to set quickly, so make sure your baking tin is prepared before you start! 

    Using up leftover Easter eggs

    This recipe is a great way to use up any leftover Easter eggs you have lying around the house after the holidays.

    Storing

    Place into an airtight container in the fridge and store for up to 3 weeks.
