100g
crisped rice cereal, we used Rice Krispies
For the rocky road
200g
dark chocolate, chopped

Directions
Step 1Line a 20.5cm round tin that’s at least 4cm deep with clingfilm.
Step 2For the base, melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add marshmallows and stir until melted and combined. Remove from heat and stir in the crisped rice cereal. Press into base of prepared tin; cool.
Step 3Next make the rocky road layer. Melt chocolates and golden syrup in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Leave to cool for 10min. Stir in 75g mini marshmallows, the biscuits and 100g Mini Eggs. Scrape on to the base and spread to level. Scatter over remaining mini marshmallows, Mini Eggs and the Mini Creme Egg halves, if using. Chill for 1hr, until set.
Step 4To serve, mix icing sugar with 1tbsp water and a little yellow food colouring, if using. Transfer rocky road to a cake stand or plate, drizzle or pipe over icing and leave to set before serving.
Get ahead: Make up to a day ahead and store in an airtight container at cool room temperature. It will keep for a few days more, but the base may go a little soggy.
