Brownies and mini eggs, it really does not get any better than that. I honestly don’t even think I need to say more than that do I? This recipe combines all of the best things about the Easter season (in my opinion) of chocolate and mini eggs, and I know that mini eggs still count as chocolate but I still count it as something separate because of that delicious outer candy shell. You can easily crush mini eggs by placing them in a large baggie and crush them with a rolling pin – super easy!
