Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

Step 1 – Melt

Melt the butter and chocolate together until smooth and all lumps of chocolate and butter have disappeared.

Step 2 – Mix

Add the egg, vanilla and sugar and mix together.

Step 3 – Fold

Sift the flour over the top of the mixture. Add the salt and fold through gently until just combined.

Step 4 – Decorate

Tips For Cooking Brownies

A chocolate brownie should have a crispy flakey top, but a dense, rich and moist filling. This Cadbury creme egg brownie recipe will give you those perfect brownies… every single time!

When cooking the brownies, it’s important not to overcook them. Once they’ve got that lovely flakey top and a skewer comes out with a few sticky crumbs on it, they’re ready.

The contrast of the crunchy caramel and oozy creme eggs pairs perfectly with the rich and fudgy dark chocolate brownies. Absolutely DELICIOUS!
