Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup (95g) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (35g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 6 whole Cadbury Creme Eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until the batter is glossy and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt to avoid lumps and ensure even distribution.
- Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. The batter should be thick but airy and spreadable.
- Pour half the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Gently nestle the 6 Cadbury Creme Eggs on top, spacing them evenly. Pour the remaining batter over the eggs, covering them without overly smushing.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft but not runny. Insert a toothpick near the edge to check; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in the pan to allow the brownies to firm up and keep the creamy egg centers intact. Use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies out for clean slicing.
Notes
For fudgier brownies, swap half the flour for almond flour. For dairy-free, use coconut oil instead of butter and verify Cadbury Creme Eggs fit your dietary needs. Chill batter for 10 minutes before adding eggs to prevent sinking. Let brownies cool completely before slicing to maintain gooey centers. Use room temperature eggs for smoother batter. Avoid overmixing to keep brownies tender.
