    White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs

    These delicious and dense white chocolate blondies (with Mini Eggs thrown in for good measure) are to die for! Delicious treat and not only for Easter!

    White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs

    With Easter around the corner and shedload of recipes on the web using either Mini or Creme Eggs already, I felt it was my responsibility to you my lovely readers to jump on the bandwagon and share my White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs! You're welcome!

    I based this recipe on myΒ White Chocolate & Almond Blondies with RaspberriesΒ which has been really popular on the blog. These Easter themed blondies don't contain any almonds as the previous recipe and are definitely less light and cakey but more brownie-like, dense and stodgy (in a very good way).

    Initially, I couldn't quite decide whether to use whole Mini Eggs or bash them about a bit. I decided on giving them whack or two and I'm glad I did. Crushed Mini Eggs can be distributed through blondie batter more evenly plus you never know what you're gonna get with your next bite. Is it going to be a whole egg, the chocolatey middle or a sweet shell? To top it all off, there is a generous sprinkle of white chocolate chips on the top of the blondies, just cause I felt like it!

    White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs

    Why would I recommend baking these White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs?

    Despite all that chocolate these blondies aren't overly sweet and sickly. They really aren't! I started of with 200g of Mini Eggs at hand but by the time it came to bashing them with the rolling pin, I only had 150g left due to necessary quality control exercise. Ooops! We felt (myself and my little helpers and personal tasters) that this quantity was quite adequate but by all means feel free to adjust it to your preferences.

    It is such a quick and easy bake and brilliant one to do with your kids too as it doesn't require fancy machinery and your only tools are a heatproof bowl and a wooden spoon!

    Irresistible White Chocolate Blondies with Mini Eggs! They are soo good, even one of the Mini Eggs went rogue and decided to help itself! πŸ˜‰

    Few useful tips!

    Always use best possible quality white chocolate! The better quality the better results plus less chance for it splitting!

    I do highly recommend melting white chocolate in the heatproof bowl over the pan of lightly simmering water as opposed to in the microwave as you can be more in control. My bitter experience with white chocolate and microwave is exactly that - bitter as I burn it every time!!! Do what you would normally do though, that's just my experience.

    You could also melt white chocolate and butter in a pan over a low heat stirring at all times. Do make sure, however, that you don't take your eyes of that pan as it takes seconds for disaster to strike!

    One last advice would be make sure you stock up on Mini Eggs!!! I can't stress it enough lol (especially if you are baking with your kiddos)! I think the reason why is pretty self-explanatory.

    Now, without further ado!

        It's so hard to come up with new Easter recipes because it seems to be the time of year when people bake the most! These look so yummy. I've never made blondies and seeing recipes like yours makes me realise I need to get baking!

        These look delicious Jo! I do have that same problem whenever I get mini eggs though - I never have quite as many in the bake as I'd planned and if I don't hide them before I use them then there are usually none left. My husband and kids love them! Thanks so much for sharing with #CookOnceEatTwice x

          Thanks Corina! πŸ™‚ It's funny how that happens isn't it? πŸ˜‰ One thing I find interesting when it comes to Mini Eggs is despite the fact we all love them I only tend to buy them around Easter time and hardly ever at other times. I suppose it might be my way of sharing the love amongst all the other treats and trying not to overindulge. lol x
