Cadburys Cream Egg v Caramel Egg Brownies

2/2/2014

My chocolate brownies packed with Dairy Milk, and Cadburys eggs squished in the top, have been going down a storm, and as much as I'd love to bake them for each and every one of you, I thought it would be easier to share the recipe - please feel free to share this link..

Ingredients:

160g solid stork margarine, or butter
80g cocoa powder
290g caster sugar
4 eggs (room temperature)
120g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
100g chocolate chips
6 Cadburys chocolate eggs  (I've used cream eggs, caramel eggs, and a combination of both, to solve the cream v caramel egg dilemma)

Let the fun begin!

 - Preheat your oven to 180C
 - Grease your baking tray (8" x 12" or similar)
 - Melt the margarine/butter over a gentle heat, then stir in the cocoa powder, sugar, and the eggs
 - Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon, until glossy
 - Sieve in the flour and baking powder, with a pinch of salt, and mix together.  
 - Mix in the chocolate chips (rather than cooking chocolate chips, I prefer to cut a bar of dairy milk into chunks)

 - Pour the mixture into your greased tray, and spread evenly, making sure the mix goes into the corners of the tray
 - Bake for 15 minutes
 - While your brownies are in the oven, cut your eggs in half (I've got no words of wisdom to explain how to do this neatly - some cut in half, some break, just go with it)
 - Take your brownies out the oven, and at regular spaces, cut a slit in the top of the brownie, and push half an egg into the cake.  It should push in easily, but if not, just apply a little pressure and wiggle it down into the cake

After the first bake, the eggs are added, and ready to go back into the oven
- Put the brownies back in the oven, and cook for a further 10-15 minutes (if the brownie springs back when you touch the surface, the cake is cooked)
 - Let them cool in the tray, and then cut into equal portions (note - if you cut across the eggs, the filling will ooze out, especially the caramel eggs)
 - Stuff your face, and share any that are left, if you feel generous
