Preheat the oven to 180ºC/160ºC fan and line a 23cm square tin with parchment paper.
In a medium pan, add the butter, sugar and golden syrup and melt over a low heat until smooth. Leave to cool for about 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, add the rolled oats, chocolate chips and easter chocolates and mix well. Pour the butter mixture over and stir to combine.
