Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams dark chocolate (chopped)
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 150 grams mini chocolate eggs (for topping)
- 50 grams milk chocolate (melted, for drizzle)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9x9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and dark chocolate together, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
Gradually pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the bowl with the sugars and eggs, whisking constantly until combined.
Sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Scatter the mini chocolate eggs over the top of the batter, pressing them gently into the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, drizzle melted milk chocolate over the top for an extra decadent touch.
Slice into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy your festive Easter treat!
