Celebrate Easter with these delicious, chocolatey festive Easter Mini Egg Brownies! This recipe includes less than 10 easy-to-find ingredients and can be prepped in less than 20 minutes. Serve as a sweet treat or during Easter as dessert.
Preheat the oven at 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Melt butter and dark chocolate in a bowl. Use a microwave to warm the ingredients at 30-second intervals or melt them on a stove. Once the ingredients are fully melted, mix them together until well incorporated.
Grab a separate bowl and whisk eggs and sugar until it has a mousse-like consistency.
Pour the egg mixture into the dark chocolate mix and fold gently until well combined.
Sieve flour, espresso, salt and cocoa powder into the mixture and fold gently.
Add mini eggs and stir until well combined.
Pour the brownie batter into a lightly greased-lined baking tin and bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
Crush mini eggs, press them into the brownies and serve.
Notes
Espresso: The espresso is optional, especially if you are serving this recipe to young children or people who are not keen on caffeine.
Butter: It is best to use unsalted butter but if you are using salted butter, consider adjusting the amount of your salt in the recipe to prevent oversalting.
Baking: Be careful not to overbake the brownies. The brownies should still be pretty moist after baking. Overbaking will cause the brownies to dry out.
