    Ingredients

    Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    The best thing about these brownies is that they're based on a super simple chocolate brownie recipe using:

    • wet ingredients - butter, melted chocolate, eggs and vanilla extract
    • dry ingredients - caster (superfine) sugar, plain (all purpose flour) and salt
    • ... and of course, Cadbury Creme Eggs!
    The ingredients for brownies made with Creme Eggs.

    Step By Step Instructions - A Melt & Mix Recipe

    This brownie recipe couldn't be easier or quicker! Simply melt (in the microwave, on a stovetop or a Thermomix) and then mix. It's as easy as that!

    Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    Step 1 - Melt

    Melt the butter and chocolate together until smooth and all lumps of chocolate and butter have disappeared.

    Step 4 - Decorate

    Pour the mixture into a prepared baking tin. Carefully cut the Creme Eggs in half and place cut-side up into the mixture. Bake until flakey on top but still moist on the inside.

    Tips For Cooking Brownies

    A chocolate brownie should have a crispy flakey top, but a dense, rich and moist filling. This Cadbury creme egg brownie recipe will give you those perfect brownies... every single time!

    When cooking the brownies, it's important not to overcook them. Once they've got that lovely flakey top and a skewer comes out with a few sticky crumbs on it, they're ready. 

    The contrast of the crunchy caramel and oozy creme eggs pairs perfectly with the rich and fudgy dark chocolate brownies. Absolutely DELICIOUS!

    More Expert Tips

    Type of chocolate

    Choose a good quality chocolate as it is a major ingredient in this recipe. The better the chocolate, the better your brownies will be.

    Equipment

    You will need a microwave, a stovetop or a Thermomix to melt the butter and chocolate.

    Cooking time

    All ovens are slightly different so it's important to keep an eye on your brownies so they don't overcook. The brownies are ready when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out with a smear of moist crumbs on it.

    Storing

    Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

    Freezing

    Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost in the fridge before consuming.

    Notes

    RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
    Creme Eggs are an Easter chocolate in the shape of an egg. They have a sweet soft white and yellow filling which is designed to represent the egg white and yolk of an egg. Creme Eggs are produced by Cadbury and are available in a larger single size as well as in packets of small eggs.
    Choose a good quality chocolate as it is a major ingredient in this recipe. The better the chocolate, the better your brownies will be.
    Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the Creme Eggs in half.
    When cooking the brownies, it’s important not to overcook them. Once they’ve got a flakey top and come out with a few sticky crumbs on them, they’re ready. 
    Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
    Alternatively freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost in the fridge before consuming.

      I know this is an older post, but have just stumbled across this recipe saved in my fave recipe app and am dying to give it a go! Just wanted to ask first, do the chopped up Creme Eggs go in gooey side up, or gooey side down? Hard to tell from the pics 🙂

      Thanks in advance!

      I made these tonight, baked until the top was dry and pale brown (30 mins) but the inside was still really runny. Baked for a further 15 mins and although the brownie is firmer it's still very runny...hoping it hardens up overnight (unlikely right?) any thoughts on what I might have done wrong?
      Side note: even though it doesn't look pretty, it tastes amazing...here's hoping it's a hit at tomorrow's Easter lunch at work.

        Hmm thats very strange Emma! It could be because all ovens are slightly different. My bet is that they will have firmed up by the morning. Hehe glad the mixture still tastes amazing!
