Chocolate Brownies with mini-eggs are a sweet Easter treat! These old-fashioned brownies are dense and fudge-y. The milk chocolate eggs are a cute and festive addition that pumps it up just a notch!
Mini Eggs Chocolate Brownies
These Easter brownies are very simple to make. You can whip these up last minute and be ready with a popular treat in no time!
First, place the butter and cocoa in a saucepan and heat till the butter is melted. Next, add the flour, vanilla, eggs, salt, sugar, and nuts. Mix well.
Grease the baking dish (I like to use olive oil spray). Pour the batter into the pan and use greased hands to pat out evenly to the edges. Sprinkle the mini-eggs and press gently into the brownie batter.
Bake at 350 for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few crumbs on it. You really don't want to overbake, or they will become dry and crumbly. Allow to cool for several minutes before cutting. Use a sharp knife to cut into 12 pieces.
