Happy Easter: Creme Egg Brownie Recipe

Happy Easter weekend blogging bunnies! I hope you all have a great few days whatever you get up to.  

If you're thinking of baking this weekend, I thought I'd share this Creme Egg brownie recipe I found online, I use it to make these yummy, gooey chocolatey treats!

Creme Egg Brownie Recipe

Here's what you'll need for your brownie recipe:

  • 150 grams unsalted butter cut into small cubes
  • 200 grams chopped dark chocolate 
  • 250 grams golden caster sugar
  • 100 grams plain flour 
  • A few drops of vanilla extract
  • 3 medium eggs
  • 4 Cadbury Creme Eggs (cut in halves)

Creme Egg Brownie Recipe:

Preheat your oven to 180c, then grease and line your baking tray with grease proof paper.  


Boil the kettle and put the boiling water into a pan, break your chocolate into squares and put in a heat proof bowl.  Then put the bowl over your pan of boiling water and melt the chocolate (make sure the water isn't touching the bowl).  Gradually add the cubes of butter to the melted chocolate and continue to stir.  


When this has melted in together bring your bowl to the side and add in the golden caster sugar and vanilla extract.  


Beat your eggs in a separate bowl, add them to the mixture and stir in to create a smooth mix for your brownies.  Start to add in the plain flour to the mixture and again stir until mixed in and smooth.

Pop your mixture into your lined baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes.  I'd say this depends on how deep your mixture is, I used a smaller tin which meant the mixture needed longer in the oven, if your mixture is relatively flat then go with the 15 minutes here.  


Remove your brownie from the oven and push in the Creme Egg halves, put the mixture back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes until the mixture sets but is still a little gooey and sticky.  


Again the timings may vary for you, the recipe I followed suggested 25 minutes baking time in total, however I'd say my total baking time was 40 minutes and they were still set yet nice and gooey in the middle.  


Leave mixture to cool and then ENJOY!
