Easy Easter Treats – Marshmallow Bark

I saw something similar to this in Sainsbury’s and thought it would be simple enough to make my own version. The only thing about this that reminds me of Easter is the fact it’s chocolate and fun spring colours. This is super easy to make and very cheap too – what more can you want for a fun snack?! I suppose these are quite similar to Rocky Road actually!

Easter Bark Recipe

Ingredients:
300g White chocolate
Mini Marshmallows
Easter/Coloured sprinkles or any fun decorations!

Easter Bark Recipe

Melt your chocolate – I did mine in the microwave for a couple of minutes and stirred through to ensure all the chunks had melted completely. Then add your marshmallows and stir them in to coat them in chocolate. Do not over-stir as the marshmallows will melt.

Easter Bark Recipe

Add your mixture to a dish/pan/whatever you like. Decorate the chocolate with sprinkles of your choice then put the mixture in the freezer to set for 20 minutes.

Once the mixture has set, remove from the freezer and chop up to your liking. You could even use easter themed cookie cutters for this, rabbit shaped ones would look awesome!

Enjoy – and try not to eat them all at once!

Rocky Road on a budget..

The other day I was looking for a Rocky road recipe, when I found this really easy one by Nigella Lawson. (Click here)

It required minimal ingredients and literally took 5 minutes to make. I also chose budget friendly ingredients, and it still tasted amazing. I bought my ingredients from Sainsburys, and used the cheapest options where possible.

Rocky Road Ingredients


I weighed out my biscuits and crushed them in the bag, ready to add to my melted chocolate, butter and golden syrup mixture.


It tasted better than it looked!


I then added my biscuits and marshmallows and placed it into a tray and left it in the fridge overnight.




I then took the rocky road out of the fridge, and cut it into bitesize chunks, which I then ate far too many of! Oops. They tasted great though, you should definitely try them!
