These Mini Egg & Marshmallow Crispy Cakes are very easy to make and devour! Perfect for making with your children as no oven is required.
I love the baking ideas that Easter provides. I still have a few that I have not made yet, and I might try and get one more out before the Ester weekend, but I fear that this one may be my last until next year now, due to it being the holidays and I have no playgroup to donate my baking to!
This take on mini egg crispy cakes is actually based on my popular Toffee Crisp recipe , but I added marshmallows and mini eggs to the mixture and some white chocolate too.
This no bake recipe is very easy too make and could be rustled up with your children this easter holidays.
It is also extremely easy to eat as it is so moreish and will not hang around for long – well maybe it will, maybe it is just my family that cannot resist it!
I made a little video showing how easy it is to make which you can watch here
Here is the recipe in full for these delicious Mini Egg & Marshmallow Crispy Cakes
- An easy recipe to make toffee crisp style Easter mini egg and marshmallow bars, using mars bars and Rice Krispies.
- *Ingredients:
- 200g Rice Krispies (or coco pops)
- 100g unsalted butter
- 8 x 39g Mars Bars – roughly chopped
- 400g milk chocolate
- 100g white chocolate
- 2 x 90g bags of Tesco micro chocolate eggs
- 1 bag of Cadburys Mini Eggs
- Easter marshmallows (or regular ones will do)
- Line a large brownie tin with grease proof paper
- Place the butter and the Mars Bars into a saucepan and melt gently over a low heat, stirring frequently.
- Once melted, beat well to eliminate any lumps
- Add the coconut pops/krispies and mix well to ensure they have been coated in the mars bar sauce
- Stir in a few handfuls of the chocolate eggs and marshmallows
- Pour into the baking dish and ensure it is pressed into all the corners and the top is smooth
- Cover with tin foil and chill for about an hour
- Meanwhile melt the chocolate – I did mine in the microwave at 30 second bursts
- Once the krispy mixture is cool, pour the milk chocolate over the top and smooth it all over
- Cover and chill again for at least 30 minutes
- Remove from the fridge and drizzle the white chocolate over the top
- Then decorate with the remaining mini eggs and marshmallows
- Then carefully, using a sharp knife, score the cake bars - you should get approx 16 cakes
- Cover and leave somewhere cool again until the chocolate is cool and then place in the fridge for an hour to set, before cutting and removing form the baking dish
- Keep in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them as crispy as possible and the chocolate firm and chilled.
