Cadbury Mini Egg Brownies

March 26, 2013

Cadbury Mini Egg Brownies

So I’ve been doing a lot of cooking and baking lately. A lot of baking. It feels good. It had been a while since I got dirty with flour and melted chocolate. It is an entirely new experience baking/cooking with the pup around. I’m constantly yelling for Price in the other room to yell for Kemper so he will run to him and get away from me when I need to open up the hot oven. But it’s all worth the extra effort since the house smelled amazing this weekend. How can it not with lots of chocolate and Cadbury Eggs?!?!

I saw these Cadbury Mini Egg Brownies from Breanna’s Recipe Box on Pinterest and knew I had to make them. They are based on Carrie‘s Milk Chocolate Cadbury Mini Egg Brownies. It’s such a small world! Anyway, I love anything related to Cadbury (see here, here and here). I just can’t resist them.

These brownie were quick to pull together and I just loved how the house smelled so good while they baked and cooled. The hardest part was chopping up the Cadbury Mini Eggs. Many they have HARD shells. I actually didn’t want to risk the slicing my finger open so I just went down to the basement and took a hammer to the eggs double bagged in a ziplock baggie. Always important not to cut finger or to disturb attached neighbor. Also, important to share! Which is why I cut mine into very small squares to share with coworkers, instead of just cutting it into 9 squares.

There are so many great options for sweet treats for Easter. And of course I had to give you another. Have fun!

Peanut Butter Lover’s Chocolate Matzo Bark

March 19, 2013

Peanut Butter Lover's Chocolate Matzo Bark

Passover starts in less than a week. So our grocery stores have a lot of Kosher products featured, including lots and lots of Matzo. Matzo is an unleavened bread, that is very similar to a cracker. It is very plain but I really like it with jam or with honey. And covered in chocolate and candy. ‘natch.
