    Triple choc brownies, but split the mixture in half and lay mint sticks or orange sticks in between the layers ... yummmmmm

    There was a recipe i saw last year for an easter chocolate cake. It looked so good (but so naughty!) Lol. Will see if I can find it for you.

    ETA: If you go to the Taste website and type 'easter' into the search box there are quite a few yummy looking cakes/desserts

    Last Easter I made a chocolate cake, put coffee cream in the middle and decorated it with tiny solid easter eggs on the top. Easy and yummy!

    I posted this recipe a couple of years ago & we make it each year

    Easter Egg Caramel Slice
    (makes 15 pieces)

    Ingredients:
    1 1/2 cups plain flour, sifted
    1/3 cup caster sugar
    80gm butter, chopped
    1 egg yolk
    500gm mini solid Easter Eggs
    1 cup shredded coconut
    395gm tin sweetened condensed milk


    Method:
    Preheat oven to 180deg.
    Grease a slab pan & line th base & sides with baking paper allowing a 2cm overhang on all sides.
    Combine flour sugar & butter in food processor until mixture resembles bread crumbs.
    Add egg yolk & 2 table spoons cold water. Process until mixture almost comes together.
    Using clean hands press mixture into the base of the pan. Bake for 15 minutes until golden. Set aside to cool.
    Unwrap Easter eggs & place over the base to cover.
    Sprinkle with coconut, then drizzle with condensed milk.
    Bake for 28-30 minutes or until the edges are golden & the centre is firm.
    Allow slice to cool completely in the pan, cut into pieces.


    I made slight modifications based on what I had here yesterday - we used dessicated coconut & white sugar, I also used extra easter eggs & condensed milk as my pan too big.

    Also it suggests trying different types of eggs

    I just printed that off the Taste website Sarah, it looks so yum! I'm going to attempt that, and Easter Egg Bikkies for Easter.
