Rocky road is lovely and this no bake Easter Rocky Road is no exception. Normally, I use milk chocolate and add whatever we feel like at the time, though if you wanted to make it a little more Eastery, this time I added some lovely speckled jelly beans and speckled Easter eggs.
No Bake Easter Rocky Road
For rocky road, you can use a variety of different mixtures. Marshmallows, whether the mini ones, or if using the large ones, cut with a pair of scissors into smaller pieces. We love rocky road with jelly lollies, clinkers, and a handful of nuts. I prefer to use milk chocolate, though you could use dark or a mixture of both dark and milk chocolate. For this rocky road, I used milk chocolate, chopped almonds, M&M’s crispy speckled Easter eggs, speckled jelly beans and white mini marshmallows.
