Mini Cadbury Easter Egg Blondies (Print version)

Gooey blondies loaded with chocolate chunks and topped with colorful mini Cadbury Easter eggs for a festive spring treat.

# Ingredient List:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
03 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

04 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
05 - 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
06 - 1 large egg
07 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Add-ins

08 - 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
09 - 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
10 - 1 cup Cadbury Mini Eggs, roughly chopped, plus whole eggs for topping

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing overhang on sides for easy removal later.
02 - Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside for later use.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and brown sugar. Stir until smooth and well blended.
04 - Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated into the butter mixture.
05 - Gently fold dry ingredients into wet mixture using a spatula. Mix only until just combined—avoid overmixing to prevent tough texture.
06 - Add white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and chopped Cadbury Mini Eggs. Fold gently to distribute evenly throughout batter.
07 - Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. Press reserved whole Mini Eggs onto surface, lightly embedding them into batter.
08 - Bake for 22-25 minutes until top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
09 - Let blondies cool completely in pan. Using parchment overhang, lift out and cut into 12 equal squares.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The texture contrast between soft blondie and crunchy candy shells is addictive
  • They come together in under 45 minutes with zero fancy techniques
  • The white and milk chocolate combo keeps them from being too sweet
02 -
  • Overbaking is the enemy—check at 22 minutes even if they look underdone, as they keep cooking in the hot pan
  • Room temperature ingredients prevent the melted butter from seizing when you add the egg
  • Chopping the Mini Eggs creates more surface area for that satisfying crunch in every bite
03 -
  • Chill the Mini Eggs for 10 minutes before chopping to prevent the candy from shattering into dust
  • Use a light-colored pan to prevent the bottoms from over-browning before the center sets
