Easter Blondies

When I tried Kinder Mini Eggs I wanted to create something to give you all an excuse to buy them (that is if you need an excuse…), these eggs combined with the deliciousness of Mere’s blondie are perfection! You could use other mini eggs but I really urge you to try the Kinder ones, I really don’t know what I’m going to do for a chocolate fix when Easter is over…

Ingredients:
115 grams butter
1 cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 cup mini Easter eggs (x2 85gram bags of Kinder Mini Eggs)

Method:
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a 20x20cm tin with baking paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light.
Beat in salt, egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add in flour, baking powder and choc chips and stir until no streaks of dry ingredients remain.
Pour dough – it will be thick – into prepared baking dish and smooth it into an even layer.
Bake for about 30 minutes, until set and the edges are just very lightly browned.
Cool in the pan before slicing.

What are you thinking of baking for Easter? Mel and I still have a couple of cute and easy ideas to share with you. I think I will definitely be doing another batch of these!
