Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Gluten free 1:1 baking flour (with xanthan gum included), 1 1/2 cups (about 210 g)
  • Unsalted butter, 1/2 cup (113 g), melted and slightly cooled
  • Light brown sugar, 1 cup (packed)
  • Granulated sugar, 1/4 cup
  • Large eggs, 2
  • Vanilla extract, 2 teaspoons
  • Baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon
  • Fine sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cadbury Mini Eggs, 1 1/4 cups, roughly chopped (plus extra for topping)
  • Optional add-ins: 1/3 cup white chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips
  • Cooking spray or parchment for the pan

Instructions
 

  • Prep the pan. Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving overhang for easy lifting. Lightly spray the sides.
  • Melt the butter. Microwave or gently melt on the stove. Let it cool for 5 minutes so it doesn’t scramble the eggs.
  • Mix the wet ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until glossy. Whisk in eggs and vanilla until smooth and slightly thick.
  • Add the dry ingredients. Sprinkle the gluten free flour, baking powder, and salt over the bowl. Stir with a spatula until just combined. Don’t overmix.
  • Fold in the candy. Gently stir in chopped Mini Eggs and any optional chips, saving a small handful for the top.
  • Spread and top. Scrape batter into the pan and smooth the surface. Press remaining Mini Eggs on top for color and crunch.
  • Bake. Bake 22–28 minutes until the edges are set and golden and the center looks just slightly underbaked. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter.
  • Cool completely. Let the pan cool on a rack at least 45–60 minutes before lifting out and slicing. This sets the chewy texture.
  • Slice and serve. Cut into 9 big squares or 16 smaller bites. Enjoy as-is or warm slightly and serve with vanilla ice cream.
