Core Ingredients
- Chocolate chips or melting chocolate (milk or white) – 200g (7 oz)
- Mini chocolate eggs – 150g (5 oz), plus extra for decoration
- Butter or coconut oil – 50g (3.5 tbsp)
- Crushed biscuits or graham crackers – 150g (5 oz)
- Vanilla extract – 1 tsp
Optional Add-Ins
- Chopped nuts (almonds, hazelnuts) – 50g (1.7 oz)
- Dried fruit (cranberries, apricots) – 50g (1.7 oz)
- Caramel drizzle or sea salt for topping
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather and measure all ingredients including crushed biscuits, chocolate chips, mini eggs, butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract to keep your workspace organized and ready for smooth preparation.
- Melt the Chocolate Mixture: In a heatproof bowl, gently melt the chocolate chips together with the butter or coconut oil using short bursts in the microwave or a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently until the mixture becomes silky and smooth.
- Combine Core Ingredients: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the crushed biscuits and toss gently to coat all crumbs completely. Add the vanilla extract and mix well to incorporate all the flavors evenly.
- Add Mini Eggs: Reserve a handful of mini eggs for decoration, then fold the remaining mini eggs into the chocolate biscuit mixture evenly so that each bite has a crunchy pop.
- Press into a Lined Pan: Transfer the mixture into a baking dish or tray lined with parchment paper. Press down firmly to create an even, compact layer that will set well once chilled.
- Decorate and Chill: Scatter the reserved mini eggs decoratively on top, then place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the dessert is firm.
- Cut and Serve: When set, remove from the fridge, lift out the parchment paper, and slice into mini squares or bars. Serve as a delightful treat that’s perfect for sharing or indulging solo.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best melting and flavor results.
- Gently fold the ingredients to keep mini eggs intact and crunchy.
- Chill thoroughly for clean slicing and firm texture.
- Line the pan with parchment or cling film to prevent sticking and ease removal.
- Try adding toasted coconut flakes or popping candy for fun texture variations.
- A warm, sharp knife helps create clean cuts without crumbling.
