These moist and chewy Chocolate Easter Egg Brownies are perfect for a sweet Easter treat. So easy to make and stuffed with chocolate Easter eggs. they’re my new favourite brownie recipe.
Today is all about chocolate 💃
Easter is less than three weeks away and I’m excited. I’ve been looking forward to whipping up some Easter-themed recipes and this one 👆🏻 does not disappoint.
These mega chewy Easter Egg Brownies are stuffed with mini Easter Eggs making them oh-so-irresistible.
This gorgeous brownie is made a little bit differently to a traditional brownie, with a little more flour, fewer eggs and baking powder for a nice lift.
But all the traditional elements are there. It has an over-the-top fudgy centre, extra crispy edges and way too many Easter eggs hiding inside.
All-in-all, it’s my new favourite brownie.
Mini Easter eggs are PERFECT for a good pop of chocolate and just make these brownies even more irresistible. And they’re super easy to make too. In fact, you probably have all the ingredients sitting in your pantry right now. #justsayin
It’s the ultimate way to enjoy Easter eggs. Wrap them up in a big, fudgy brownie and then bake them to perfection.
I actually just made another batch of these on Thursday night and they were gobbled up in no time. I told you = irresistible.

Hi! When I was making this I had realised I accidentally over-floured by brownie batter. It had more of a dough-like texture than a batter-like texture and so the end result turned out a bit dry:(
In a situation like this what do you recommend doing to save your brownies from being too floury? Would you add another egg perhaps? or some oil?
Thank you:)
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Ashlesha, sorry to hear that. It’s very hard to offer any specific advice in this scenario because it would depend on the quantity of extra flour added. I highly recommend using a baking scale and weighing out your flour before adding it to the mix to minimise any user error.

It could be a variation of oven, but I had to cook it for an hour at 180C, because after 40mins it was more like a chocolate self-saucing pudding, crusted on top and sauce underneath – which was still delicious though!
The final product (fully cooked) was great texture and taste too.
I used a greased and baking paper lined square pyrex glass cake tin.
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Shannon, so glad you enjoyed the brownies! You are right, baking times definitely vary with each oven, but cooking in glass also typically means a longer cooking time as they don’t heat up as quickly as an aluminium.
Vicki Martin says
I needed a recipe with less real eggs more mini eggs (because that’s what I had on hand) and this one fitted perfectly. I made a double batch with maybe extra mini eggs so cooked for longer. Definitely a winner with my workmates!
Jessica Holmes says
Awesome! Love hearing that Vicki!
