Step 1: Warm Up the Oven and Get the Pan Ready
Fire up your oven to a cozy 350°F.
Grab an 8×8 or 9×9 inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, giving it a light spray of cooking oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Whip Together the Brownie Magic
In a big mixing bowl, blend the melted butter with both granulated and brown sugars until they become best friends.
Crack in the eggs and splash of vanilla, whisking until everything looks smooth and happy.
Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder.
Gently fold everything together, being careful not to overmeat the batter.
Toss in the chocolate chips for extra decadence.
Step 3: Bake the Brownie Base
Pour the luscious batter into your prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
Slide the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
Step 4: Bring on the Creme Egg Excitement
Once the brownies are looking soft and dreamy, gently nestle the halved Cadbury Creme Eggs on top, cut-side up.
If you’re feeling extra indulgent, scatter some Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs around for bonus wow factor.
Pop the pan back in the oven for another 5-7 minutes, letting the eggs get slightly melty and the brownies set perfectly.
Step 5: Cool Down and Dive In
Patience is key!
Let the brownies chill in the pan for at least 30 minutes.
For picture-perfect slices, stick the pan in the refrigerator for an hour before cutting and serving.
Get ready to experience chocolate heaven!

FAQs
The key is to add the eggs when the brownies are partially baked and still soft. This allows the eggs to sit on top without sinking too deep into the batter. Make sure to press them gently into the surface of the partially baked brownies.
Yes, you can! Dark cocoa powder will give the brownies a richer, more intense chocolate flavor. Just use the same amount as specified in the original recipe and adjust to your taste preference.
To prevent cracking, ensure the brownies are completely cooled and chilled before cutting. Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts. For cleaner slices, chill the brownies in the refrigerator for about an hour before serving.
While not absolutely essential, the chocolate chips add extra gooeyness and chocolate flavor to the brownies. If you don’t have them or prefer a less rich brownie, you can omit them without significantly changing the recipe’s overall texture and taste.

- Total Time: 45 minutes
- Yield: 12 1x
Description
Indulgent Cadbury Creme Egg Chocolate Brownies promise a rich, gooey chocolate experience with unexpected sweet surprises. Delicate chocolate layers and melted creme eggs create an irresistible dessert you cannot resist savoring in one delightful bite.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
Binding and Flavoring Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Topping Ingredients:
- 6 Cadbury Creme Eggs, cut in half
- 6 Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs, whole
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by heating the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining an 8×8 or 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper, applying a light grease coating.
- Create a smooth base by whisking melted butter with granulated and brown sugars until fully integrated. Incorporate eggs and vanilla, mixing thoroughly to achieve a uniform consistency.
- Gently sift cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder into the wet mixture, stirring delicately to prevent overmixing. Carefully fold chocolate chips throughout the batter to enhance richness and texture.
- Transfer the batter evenly into the prepared pan, ensuring a level surface. Bake for approximately 25 minutes until the brownies begin to set.
- Remove the partially baked brownies and strategically nestle halved Cadbury Creme Eggs across the surface, positioning them cut-side upward. Scatter Mini Cadbury Creme Eggs for additional visual appeal and flavor complexity.
- Return the pan to the oven, allowing the eggs to slightly melt and integrate with the brownie base for an additional 5-7 minutes.
- Allow the brownies to cool within the pan for a minimum of 30 minutes, enabling proper setting and structural stability. For optimal serving and cleaner slicing, refrigerate for one hour before cutting and presenting.
Notes
- Gently press Creme Eggs when brownies are warm to ensure they sink slightly into the batter without completely disappearing.
- For a cleaner presentation, freeze Creme Eggs briefly before cutting them in half to prevent messy splitting.
- Swap regular flour with gluten-free flour blend for a celiac-friendly version without compromising the rich chocolate texture.
- Reduce sugar by 25% and use dark chocolate chips for a less sweet, more intense brownie experience that adults might prefer.
