Cadbury Caramel Egg Brownies
Decadent salted brownies made with chopped Caramel Eggs both inside and on top! The perfect chocolate treat for Easter!
Ingredients
- 200 g dark chocolate 70% cocoa
- 180 g butter salted
- 250 g caster sugar
- 3 Medium egg
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100 g plain flour
- 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
- Small Pinch salt sea salt
- 6 caramel eggs roughly chopped
- 100 g milk chocolate chips
Topping:
- 6 caramel eggs halved or chopped
- Small Pinch salt sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (140°C for fan ovens) and line an 8x8-inch tin with baking paper.
- Melt the dark chocolate and the butter together over low heat on the stove then set aside to cool for around 10 minutes.
- To a large bowl, add the sugar, eggs and vanilla extract. Using an electric whisk, whisk it all together for a few minutes- it should have increased in volume and look pale and silky.
- Add the melted butter/chocolate mixture to the bowl and gently fold it into the sugar/egg mixture.
- Add the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Mix gently to make a glossy brownie batter then stir in the chopped Caramel Eggs and the chocolate chips.
- Transfer the mixture to your lined tin then top with Caramel Egg pieces.
- Bake for around 35-40 minutes until the brownies have risen and are pulling away from the tin slightly. While they're still warm, add a sprinkling of salt on top.
- Leave in the tin until cool then transfer to the fridge overnight to set. This will make them fudgy instead of gooey.
- Once set, remove the brownies from the tin, cut into squares and enjoy!
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
