In private recitation you may use the Nicene Creed if you want to.
But Our Lord told St. Foustina to use the Apostles Creed. I would be reluctant to second guess Him. I expect that the Apostles Creed has been used for the Chaplet and the Rosary because it is shorter and easier to remember when it is not before us to read.
