This delicious recipe for Creme Egg Brownies has us all drooling

Trine Jensen-Burke

Easter is upon us, people, and there is no use in even attempting to think about bikini season or diets until the chocolate frenzy has subsided.

Especially once you have seen these Cadbury Creme Egg brownies – which we think is pretty much a must-bake this week.

We dare you to resist.

Cadbury Creme Egg Brownies

Ingredients

  • 185g Dark Chocolate
  • 185g Butter
  • 85g Plain Flour
  • 40g Cocoa Powder
  • 3 Eggs
  • 275g Caster Sugar
  • 6 Cadbury Creme Eggs

Instructions
  1. To begin, pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius (gas mark four)
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a bowl over a pan of hot water.
  3. Once melted, leave to cool.
  4. Mix your eggs and sugar using an electric whisk. This takes time and your mixture needs to double in size and thicken up. Your mix should also be pale in colour.
  5. Add you egg and sugar mix to your cooled chocolate mixture. TIP: Make sure your chocolate mixture is at least luke-warm, or cooler. If the chocolate mixture is too hot it will cook the eggs!
  6. Sift in the flour and cocoa powder and fold everything together. Take your time and be gentle. Pour everything into your brownie tray and cook for about 20 mins.
  7. Whilst that’s cooking, start to cut your creme eggs in half. This is tricky and doesn’t always turn out very neat, but don’t worry, it will still taste great. If you heat our nice in hot water before every slice it may also help.
  8. After 20mins cooking, take out your brownies. They should be looking quite cooked around the edges but still quite soft in the middle. Place your eggs on top of the half-cooked brownies and gently press down.
  9. Bake for a further 10 – 15 mins or until cooked through.
  10. Once cooked, leave to cool before cutting.
