Thanks so much to my Twitter bud @BunnieXOXO for inspiring this Easter themed snack. She found a recipe for Cadbury Mini-Egg Blondies and I couldn’t wait to try it (check out her version using brownies)! I’d never had blondies before, so I reached out to a friend that has made them a time or two for her recipe found at SimplyRecipes.com.

The best I can describe a blondie is that it shares a lot of the same ingredients as cookie dough, but it’s the consistency and form of a brownie. Since I am a chocolate addict, I don’t think I’d ever be able to make blondies on their own, so the addition of the Cadbury Mini-Eggs was perfect for me {maybe with chocolate chips after Easter}. This recipe doesn’t have any cinnamon in it, but my taste-testing friend thought these blondies were similar to Snickerdoodles.

Serving: 9 Blondies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of butter, melted
1 cup of tightly packed dark brown sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon of baking soda
Pinch of salt
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 cup Cadbury Mini-Eggs
1/4 cup Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly butter and flour an 8X8 pan. Whisk together the melted butter and sugar in a bowl.

Add the egg and vanilla extract and whisk. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mix it all together. Mix in 1 cup of the Cadbury-Mini Eggs.

Pour into the pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool. Sprinkle evenly with crushed Cadbury Mini-Eggs, cut into squares and serve.

So what do you think of these Easter Cadbury Mini-Egg Blondies? Is this a recipe you would try?
