Hello guys! Creme Egg Brownies… I thought it was time for another Easter recipe and this time I knew it had to be a creme egg recipe. One of the most iconic Easter treats. These are rich and fudgey brownies packed with mini creme eggs and chocolate chips then topped with loads of gooey creme eggs. Heaven in a brownie! Perfect for Easter baking.
Make sure you freeze your mini creme eggs before baking. This helps them hold their shape. Please wait for your brownies to cool before cutting. This will make sure you get a nice and clean cut. I always get asked how do I cut them so well and its literally all down to letting them cool 100%. You can also leave them in the fridge for an extra hour and then cut with a hot knife to get them super sharp and professional looking.
If you have any questions Dm me on Instagram. Happy Baking! <3 Keep an eye out on my Instagram for a Reel of me making this Creme egg recipe ! Also, check out my new facebook group ”Gills Bakes and Cakes <3”
