Frosted Mini Egg Brownies

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 cup butter

  unsalted
• 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 4 eggs

  large
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup mini eggs
• 16 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 8 oz whipping cream
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp salt

Instructions

• 1 In a medium sauce pan, melt butter over medium heat. Once butter has melted, add
  cocoa and stir. Once cocoa is fully incorporated, add the granulated sugar and
  stir.
• 2 Continue to stir until the sugar begins to dissolve, approximately 2 minutes.
  Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
• 3 Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside. 
• 4 Pour the butter mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add eggs and vanilla extract.
  Stir using a whisk until smooth. Add salt and all-purpose flour. Whisk until
  just incorporated. Gently fold in mini eggs.
• 5 Pour brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 22-25 minutes. 
• 6 While the brownies are baking, add the chocolate chips to a heat safe bowl. In a
  medium saucepan, bring whipping cream to a light simmer over low heat. Pour hot
  whipping cream over chocolate chips and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Add vanilla
  extract and salt, and whisk until smooth. Lightly cover and set aside.
• 7 Remove brownies from oven and allow to cool completely. Once the brownies have
  completely cooled, frost them with the ganache topping. Sprinkle extra mini eggs
  onto the brownie. Slice and serve!
