Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter
- 1 3/4 cups (350 grams) granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (150 grams) brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup (75 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup (120 grams) all-purpose flour
- 6 Cadbury Creme Eggs
Baking Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Optional Add-ins:
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) chocolate chips
- 6 Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by heating the oven to 350F (175C). Create a non-stick surface in an 8-inch or 9-inch pan using parchment paper and a light grease coating.
- Craft the rich chocolate base by combining melted butter with granulated and brown sugars until smooth. Incorporate eggs and vanilla, whisking thoroughly. Carefully sift cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder into the mixture, stirring gently to maintain a smooth consistency. Delicately fold chocolate chips into the batter for enhanced texture and flavor.
- Transfer the decadent chocolate mixture into the prepared pan, ensuring an even distribution. Slide the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes until the base develops a slightly firm texture.
- During the initial baking phase, carefully slice Cadbury Creme Eggs in half. Once the initial baking completes, gently press the egg halves into the soft brownie surface with cut-sides facing upward. Strategically scatter Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs across the top for additional visual appeal. Return the pan to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the eggs to slightly melt and the brownie base to fully set.
- Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool within the pan for a minimum of 30 minutes. For precise and clean slicing, refrigerate the brownies for approximately 1 hour before serving, which will help them firm up and make cutting easier.
Notes
- Melt chocolate chips gently to prevent burning and ensure smooth, even texture in the brownie batter.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep brownies fudgy and prevent a tough, dense texture.
- Cut Cadbury Creme Eggs carefully when they’re slightly cold to maintain their shape during placement.
- Use parchment paper overhang for easy brownie removal and clean slicing without sticking.
