Easter Bunny Bark is a great gift. I mean, who doesn't love a cute, homemade gift idea that you can have ready in under an hour? Wrap it up in a cute little box or plastic bag with some bright, spring-colored ribbon and you have a perfect Easter gift for your friends, family, or neighbors! Or, place it on an Easter board for an adorable dessert!
Why you’ll love this recipe
This Easter bark is perfect because it’s so easy to make, requires only THREE ingredients, and you can use it for Easter treats for the kiddos, as one of your Easter desserts (how cute would this look on your dessert table, next to an Easter chalkboard sign), or even as a gift!
Oh, and did I mention it is SO yummy?! This is the kind of dessert that you have to give away so you don’t eat it all yourself (I might be speaking from experience, here).
Make it with your kids
If your kiddos love to help in the kitchen like mine do, this is a great recipe to let them make with you! We love having our kiddos also help with these Easter Oreo cookies because they have fun with the sprinkles!
Younger kids could help you spread melted chocolate and press in the fun toppings. Since this is such an easy recipe, older kids could even make it themselves (as long as they keep a close eye on their microwave times and watch the chocolate melt).
And the best part? When you finish, you have a delicious treat to share!

Ingredients
You only need three ingredients to make this simple recipe!
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces
- 8 ounces white baking chocolate, chopped into small pieces
- 4 ounces Cadbury mini eggs, chopped (We used these in this mini egg cookie recipe too!)
Instructions
- Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper (about a 7"x10"). If you want to double the recipe, use a large baking sheet.
- Melt semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave safe bowl or using a double boiler. If you’re using a microwave, melt in short bursts (30 second increments), mix well and repeat.
- Pour onto the baking sheet and spread as evenly as you can; you do not have to go edge to edge.
- Melt the white chocolate the same way as the semi-sweet.
- Pour on the baking sheet and spread it out covering most or all the semi-sweet chocolate. TIP: Allow it to cool in the fridge for about 5-10 minutes, before starting with the white chocolate if you don’t want the chocolate colors to blend.
- Immediately add any toppings you want, lightly pressing down if needed to get them to stick into the chocolate.
- Chill in the fridge for about 25 minutes until set.
- Place paper on a cutting board and chop into desired sizes and shapes.
- Store, well-sealed, for a 7 to 10 days on the counter in a room no more than 70F, in the fridge for a few weeks, or in the freezer for a few months!
Substitutions
- White baking chocolate - you could use white chocolate chips or instead (and then you don’t have to chop them) or even white candy melts.
- Semi-sweet chocolate - you could use semi-sweet chocolate chips here (and, again, then you don’t have to chop). You could also use dark chocolate chips instead!
If you want this to be a white chocolate bark only, you could double the white chocolate and skip the semi-sweet chocolate entirely!
- Mini chocolate eggs - if you don’t want to this to be an Easter egg bark, you could pick anything from our variations list below and use it in its place!
Variations
Easter Bunny Bark is super versatile; you could honestly add whatever you want to it! Here are a few suggestions:
- chopped cookies (chocolate chip, Oreo, circus animal)
- chopped, dried fruit
- pastel sprinkles
- chopped pretzels (salty and sweet make a perfect combo!)
- Easter M&Ms (or pastel M&Ms)
- chopped marshmallow peeps
- mini marshmallows
- jelly beans
This recipe would be a great way to use up all that leftover Easter candy from your kid’s Easter basket (like those chocolate bunnies that everyone seems to get)! Add in your favorite Easter candy and have fun with it!
Storage
Store your Easter Bunny Bark, well-sealed, for a week to 10 days on the counter in a room no more than 70F, in the fridge for a few weeks, or freezer for a few months.
Expert tips and FAQs
If kept in an airtight container in the fridge it should stay fresh for 2-3 weeks. If you prefer your bark left out at room temperature it will last up to 7-10 days.
Bark is very versatile so feel free to have fun with it! Here are some suggestions you could try adding: chopped cookies like chocolate chip or Oreo, chopped candy bars, pretzels (perfect for that salty and sweet combination) or dried cranberries!
