Cadbury Creme Egg Brownies

If you’re a fan of creme eggs, then you absolutely MUST try these brownies. Seriously, stop what you’re doing IMMEDIATELY, go into the kitchen and make them.  You won’t regret it.

Not a fan of creme eggs?  Try my  Cadbury caramel egg brownies instead!

These brownies first caught my eye when a friend of mine posted the picture on my Facebook wall..and after that different versions of this Easter themed treat kept appearing on my news feed almost every day.  

I felt it was a sure sign that the universe was telling me I needed to make Creme egg brownies.

I tried Cadbury creme egg cupcakes last Easter and they went down a storm with my lot, so I couldn’t resist giving these brownies a try.

Can I freeze these creme egg brownies?

Yes you can.  When the brownies have completely cooled, place them in an air tight container and freeze for up to 2 months.

how long will these creme egg brownies last?

The brownies will keep well for up to 5 days, although as all brownies do, they will get a little drier after a few days of storing.  But I honestly wouldn’t worry about it – they never last longer than 2 days in my house and I suspect you will be the same!

handy tips and tricks….

If you want to cut these brownies into neat squares then I would recommend refrigerating them overnight before slicing.  But if you just don’t want to wait (and I wouldn’t blame you!) then just grab a spoon and dig in!  

Vanilla ice cream is a delicious accompaniment.

All that’s left for me to say is just make them – your family and friends will love you!
