Equipment

  • 1 slice tin (33 x 23 cm)
  • 1 baking paper
  • 1 mixer
  • 1 wooden skewer

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180C.
  2. Lightly grease a slice tin (33 x 23 cm) with butter and line it with baking paper.
  3. Melt the butter on the stove or in the microwave.
  4. Using a mixer, beat the eggs and sugar together, add vanilla, flour, cocoa, salt (optional) and the melted butter next. Mix this together and gently pour the mixture into the tin.
  5. Unwrap the foil from the Caramello eggs and place them at even intervals into the mixture.
  6. Bake for approximately 20-30 minutes at 180C. You can test if the brownies are cooked through by inserting a wooden skewer into the centre of the tin. If it comes out clean, they’re ready to be taken out of the oven.
  7. Let the brownies cool and dust with sifted icing sugar.

Notes

Tip
If you like a denser, gooier brownie, remove from the oven a little earlier.
Tip
This is a great one to make with kids – they love unwrapping the foiled eggs and adding them to the mixture!
Tip
Be sure to let the brownies cool completely before eating as the hot mixture can burn little tongues.
Tip
Serve each brownie with a shiny wrapped Caramello egg on top.
