Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easter Mini Egg Brownies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate with salted butter and heat in 20-second increments, stirring until melted.
  3. Let the chocolate-butter mixture cool slightly, then whisk in white sugar until combined and glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add room temperature eggs and vanilla extract, whisk vigorously for about 5 minutes until the mixture is airy and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold in the melted chocolate mixture into the egg-sugar blend, mixing until fully combined.
  6. Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients, gently folding until just combined.
  7. Fold in the mini eggs, pour the batter into the prepared pan, and press more mini eggs on top.
  8. Bake for 28 minutes until the edges are set and the center is slightly firm.
  9. Allow brownies to cool completely before lifting out and slicing into squares.
