Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 12 Cadbury Creme Eggs, cut in half
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin pan or line it with mini muffin liners to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well combined and there are no dry patches.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently into the brownie batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, fill each mini muffin cup about halfway with the brownie batter. This will allow room for the Cadbury Creme Egg halves.
- Carefully place half of a Cadbury Creme Egg on top of the brownie batter in each muffin cup, pressing down slightly to ensure they are nestled into the batter.
- Once all the cups are filled, add a little more brownie batter on top of each Cadbury Creme Egg half, covering them completely. Be careful not to overfill, as the brownies will rise while baking.
- Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the brownie bites comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
- Once baked, remove the brownie bites from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- If desired, dust the cooled brownie bites with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness and presentation.
- Serve the Cadbury Creme Egg brownie bites as a delightful dessert or treat. Enjoy!
Tips
- Make sure to grease your mini muffin pan thoroughly or use high-quality liners to prevent sticking.
- When cutting the Cadbury Creme Eggs, use a sharp knife and do it quickly to keep the filling intact.
- Don't overmix the brownie batter - just stir until ingredients are combined for the most tender texture.
- Watch the baking time carefully - these mini bites can go from perfect to overdone quickly.
- Let the brownie bites cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar to prevent melting.
- For an extra touch of decadence, serve slightly warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days - if they last that long!
