Fudgy And Gooey Mini Egg Brownies
If you don’t know by now, I love a gooey brownie recipe and this mini egg brownie has that exact texture! It’s fudgy, soft and just utterly delicious. Far from cakey brownies… my worst nightmare!
These brownies are so gooey because the recipe has a lower amount of plain flour in the mixture compared to chewy and cakey type brownies.
It’s meant to be slightly crisp on the outside with a tender and gooey texture on the inside. They’re firm enough to pick up and eat yet are still soft, delicate and tasty.

Where Can I Buy Cadbury Mini Eggs?
Around Easter time you’ll find mini eggs pretty much everywhere! You can stock up on these chocolates around this time, so that you’ll always have a few at hand whenever you want to make them.
Easter will not be Easter if I haven’t gone through a couple packs of mini eggs. It’s the time of year when the shops are full of them: so I always get one, two or maybe five packs at a go.
You can also get mini eggs here on Amazon.
Recipe Ingredients
You only need 8 ingredients to make these brownies, they’re simple ingredients you might have at home already.
- Mini Eggs: Cadbury mini eggs are pastel-coloured shells that are filled with solid milk chocolate. The shells are light, crisp and adds a mild crunch to the brownies.
- Plain Flour: Adds structure, there’s not a lot of plain flour in this recipe that’s why they’re so gooey.
- Dark Chocolate: It’s best to use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate, dark chocolate will provide a rich and dark flavour.
- Cocoa Powder: The best cocoa powder that tops all cocoa powders ever is this one here.
- Vanilla: Adds extra flavour, this right here is my favourite vanilla extract ever.
- Butter: You can use either salted or unsalted butter.
- Eggs: Use eggs at room temperature for best results.
- Sugar: Caster sugar is whisked with eggs until the mixture is pale and frothy.
Topping
If you would like to decorate your brownies, I drizzled melted white chocolate on top and sprinkled chopped mini eggs.
