Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350F degrees and prepare a 9x9 baking dish by lightly spraying with non-stick spray and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth.
Add in eggs and vanilla and stir again.
Gently stir in flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
Lastly, gently stir in the lightly crushed mini Cadbury eggs.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Top with lightly crushed mini Cadbury eggs, if desired.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the outsides of the brownies look set.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before cutting.
Notes
Make sure you use unsweetened cocoa powder in this recipe and not dutch processed cocoa.
You can find the Mini Cadbury eggs at your local grocery usually with the seasonal items.
If you can't find Mini Cadbury Eggs, just swap out for some pastel colored M&M's.
Do not over mix the batter - this will change the texture that we are going for.
This batter is thick. You will need to use a spatula to spread it into the pan and smooth out the top.
Press more Mini Eggs into the brownie batter before baking. It's not necessary but I like to make sure I can see the chocolate eggs showing through on top.
