Tips for Making this Recipe
- When it comes to the type of easter egg chocolate and mini eggs you use, it's really up to you! I like to use mini filled eggs and cut them in half before adding to my brownie mix as the filling spills out of the eggs into the brownie, however you can use solid mini eggs or a combination of your favourites.
- It is important to let the brownies cool completely before removing from the tin and cutting into pieces.
- The temperatures and time given for baking these brownies are based on using a 20cm square baking tin - if your dish is smaller/larger the time it takes to bake the brownies will vary.
