Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180C/160C Fan and line a 9x9inch Square baking tray with parchment paper.
Melt together the Butter and Dark Chocolate together in a heatproof bowl over a pan of boiling water, on the microwave in 20 second bursts until melted. Leave on the side to cool whilst you do the rest.
Using an electric whisk/stand mixer, whisk together the Eggs & Caster Sugar for a few minutes until the colour has turned pale, is very mousse like, and is double the original volume of the amount of eggs + sugar!
You will know its done because when you lift the whisk up out of the mix it should leave a trail for a couple of seconds before disappearing!
When whisked, pour the cooled chocolate/butter mix over eggs and fold together carefully.
Once completely combined, sift the cocoa powder and plain flour on top of the chocolate mix and then fold together again – still be careful to not knock out the air!

You obviously don’t have to use as many chocolates as I did, I went a little crazy, but it shows you that you can use whatever you like. Creme Eggs are slightly different however, you’d have to freeze them overnight before baking with them.
**Depending on your ovens, or how you mixed the brownies up, some can take up to an hour to bake successfully. I’ve never fully understood why, but don’t give up if they’re not done after 30 minutes – cover with foil and continue to bake for longer. I poke a skewer through them and wait till its mostly clean, and the mixture doesn’t wobble in the tin.
Warm these up in the microwave and serve with some ice-cream, a delicious dessert for any occasion!
These will last in an airtight container for up to 1 week if they last that long!
Recipe Updated April 2019
Flour was 90g, Cocoa Powder was 35g originally - increased to make batter thicker!
Before I stated 1x Bag Smartie Eggs, Mini Eggs, Milkybar Eggs and 2x Galaxy Golden Eggs with 100g of Chocolate Chips - but I just used anything this time to make it easier!
If using Mini Creme Eggs, make sure they're frozen!

Wow! What a recipe. Made these a few days ago and my parents who never liked brownies before now love them (we were planning on freezing half but we've devoured the batch!). Thank you for the recipe Jane. I can't wait to try out your other brownie recipes. This has given me the confidence to make brownies (so gooey and fudgy!) where before I was slightly daunted at the prospect of not getting them right.
Hi Jane!
Made these yesterday for Mother’s Day and they are absolutely delicious! Can they be frozen? Not sure if we will get through them all in a week! X
Made these today to have over the Easter weekend but couldn’t resist having one early. Oh. My. Word. They are delicious! I used whatever Easter choc I could get from the shop today and it works really well with all of it. Can’t wait to have another tomorrow
I made these for my sister's birthday yesterday and my family's first meet up since Christmas! They were divine! Everyone loved them - thank you so much!
