TIP: Brownies can be made up to one week ahead.
Store in an airtight container in a cool place. Any flavoured chocolate eggs can be used – try Crunchie, Maltesers or Caramello. To serve as a dessert, serve brownie warm with ice-cream
Ingredients
Method
Grease an 18cm x 28cm rectangular slice pan. Line base and sides with baking paper, extending paper 2cm above pan edges.
Combine chocolate and butter in a large, heatproof bowl. Sit bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until melted. Remove bowl. Stir in sugar and vanilla. Cool for 15 minutes.
Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Add combined sifted ours and cocoa. Whisk until smooth.
Coarsely chop half the chocolate eggs. Fold into chocolate mixture. Pour into prepared pan. Spread evenly. Arrange remaining whole chocolate eggs evenly over top.
Cook in a moderately slow oven (160°C) for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until just firm to touch. Remove from oven. Cool in pan.
To serve, lift brownie out of pan. Cut into rectangles.
