Method
Preheat Oven & Prep Pan
- Preheat your oven to 325℉ (160°C). Grease your 9x9 inch baking dish thoroughly with butter or non-stick spray. For easier removal, line the bottom with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides.
Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Sifting helps prevent lumps and ensures an even distribution of ingredients. Set this mixture aside.
Mix Wet Ingredients
- Add the melted unsalted butter to the bowl of your electric mixer. Cream it together with the brown sugar and white sugar until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes on medium speed.
Add Eggs
- Incorporate the vanilla extract, the large egg, and the large egg yolk into the butter and sugar mixture. Mix thoroughly until everything is creamy and well integrated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Do not overmix at this stage.
Combine Wet and Dry
- Gradually add the reserved flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; overmixing can develop the gluten too much, leading to tough blondies instead of chewy ones.
Fold in Chocolates
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips using your rubber spatula. Then, carefully add the milk chocolate mini Cadbury eggs. If you crushed some eggs, add them now. Distribute them evenly throughout the batter. These festive additions make your Cadbury Mini Egg blondies truly special.
Spread Batter
- Transfer the rich batter into your prepared 9x9 inch baking dish. Use your rubber spatula to spread it evenly into the corners, creating a smooth top.
Bake
- Bake for approximately 40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center appears set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but not wet batter. Overbaking will result in dry blondies.
Cool & Slice
- Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes, or ideally, for an hour or two before slicing. Cooling ensures they set properly, giving you clean, perfect squares of deliciousness. This also prevents the Cadbury Mini Egg blondies from crumbling.

Notes
The extra egg yolk is vital for chewiness; avoid overmixing once flour is added. Cool blondies completely before slicing for clean squares. Store airtight at room temp for 3 days. Nutrition information is estimated based on common ingredients and serving sizes and may vary.
