Easter is just around the corner and I’m always looking for creative ways to celebrate. I’ve been forthcoming about the fact that I’m not a big fan of chocolate. In fact, I can usually go without. With one exception — brownies! Brownies are basically the only chocolate I LOVE. Scratch-made brownies are the greatest. You will LOVE these mini Easter egg brownies! Perfect in every way. And an easy way to add a snack to your Easter festivities.
What You’ll Need
This recipe will have you wondering why you ever made boxed brownies. One item that will give you a little assistance is using either a hand mixer or a stand mixer. Here’s what else you’ll need:
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup of unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup of vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- ¼ cup of light brown sugar, lightly packed
- ½ cup of cocoa powder
- ¾ cup off all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup of Cadbury mini eggs, roughly chopped
- ¼ cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
That’s it! I purchase my Cadbury mini eggs from this shop on Amazon.
