For the brownies, you will need
- 85g plain flour
- 200g caster sugar
- 185g soft unsalted butter
- 300g mini eggs, slightly crushed
- 3 large eggs
- 40g cocoa
- 8x8 square tin
- Parchment paper
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C for fan-assisted ovens.
- Place the butter in a microwavable bowl and then a microwave for 45 secs or until the butter is melted.
- Once the butter is melted, slowly add the sugar, cocoa and flour whilst mixing with an electric whisk.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs for 3 minutes or until the eggs are light and fluffy.
- Slowly add the whisked eggs to the other bowl whilst slowly folding the mixture with a wooden spoon.
- Once combined, add half of the mini eggs and lightly fold the mixture once more.
- Line the baking tin with parchment paper and then add the brownie mix.
- Sprinkle the remaining mini eggs on top of the mix in the baking tin in an even layer.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until desired consistency remembering the centre should still be gooey whilst the edges look cake-like.
- Once cooled, cut into 9 even squares.
