recipe testing

I’ve been making these brownies for years. It’s no secret that I LOVE to use Easter eggs in my baked goods, like Rocky Road and Chocolate Cake.

So it was only a matter of time when my two loves (brownies and Easter eggs) collided. Just like my favourite Peanut Butter Brownies, these brownies are made with real melted chocolate. It ensures a very fudgy middle and a crinkly top.

And not only are there giant Creme Eggs baked into the top but there is a whole heap of mini Creme Eggs thrown into the batter too. Umm yes please!

what you will need

You only need a handful of everyday ingredients, plus plenty of Creme Eggs, to make these brownies. Here’s what you will need:

• Unsalted butter
• Dark chocolate: Or semi-sweet chocolate thats 45-70% cocoa. I recommend using a good quality chocolate you’d be happy to eat on it’s own. It doesn’t have to be baking chocolate, just a regular block of dark chocolate is fine.
• Caster sugar: Or granulated sugar.
• Brown sugar
• Vanilla extract
• Eggs
• Plain flour: Or all purpose flour.
• Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs
• Large Cadbury Creme Eggs

how to make it

These brownies are relatively quick and easy to make. Here’s how in four simple steps.

1. Melt together butter and chocolate until smooth. Stir through sugars and vanilla.
2. Add eggs, one at a time, followed by flour and salt. Mix through mini Creme Eggs.
3. Transfer batter to prepared pan and bake. Halfway through baking, press large Creme Eggs on top.
4. Continue to bake until they no longer wobble in the middle.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F) standard / 160 C (320 F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch square pan with baking or parchment paper, ensuring two sides of the paper overhang.
2. Place butter and chocolate in a medium-sized heatproof bowl that fits snugly on top of a medium-sized saucepan. Fill saucepan with a couple of inches of water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water below.
3. Place on medium heat and stir while the chocolate and butter melt. Once the mixture is lovely and smooth, remove the bowl from the heat and leave to cool slightly.
4. Next, add sugar and vanilla to the chocolate mixture and beat with an electric beater on medium speed until combined. Add eggs, one at a time and beat briefly.
5. Add flour and salt and beat just until the brownie mixture is smooth. Stir through chopped mini Creme Eggs.
6. Pour brownie mixture into prepared tin and smooth the top.
7. Bake brownie for about 25 minutes, then gently remove from the oven. Carefully press the large Creme Eggs into the top of the brownie.
8. Place brownie back in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes or until it no longer wobbles in the middle. Leave to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Microwave: If you prefer, you can melt the butter and chocolate in the microwave instead of the stove. Place butter and chocolate in a large mixing bowl and heat, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.

Dark chocolate: I recommend using dark chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate that’s somewhere between 45-70% cocoa. 

Serving: These brownies are best eaten when they are still a little warm. Leave them to cool almost completely, then slice into squares. Fresh from the oven, the Creme Eggs are gooey and warm. As they cool (and if you choose to chill them in the fridge) the Creme Eggs will harden once again. To serve the next day, consider microwaving your brownie for 10-20 seconds to make it gooey and warm again.
