Great British Bake Off star shares one recipe you need to use for Easter chocolate Great British Bake Off star Rebs has shared an incredibly simple brownie recipe that will help you use up all that leftover chocolate you've got from Easter – if you have any, that is You can bake the delicious treat (Stock Image) (Image: Grace Cary via Getty Images ) If you find yourself overwhelmed with an abundance of chocolate each year, unsure how to tackle the sweet mountain, why not consider some post-Easter baking? It's not only a fun activity but also a rewarding one, and if you have children who can join in, it's a fun activity for them to do. For those with a penchant for something rich and indulgent, Rebs from Great British Bake Off 2022 has come to the rescue with a tempting recipe. She showcased her own batch of brownies, brimming with a vibrant mix of leftover Easter egg chocolates, in various colours, shapes, and textures. Rebs encouraged budding bakers, saying: "This is the perfect way to use up your leftover Easter eggs," describing her brownies as "fudgey" and noting they are "a great way to use up the odds and ends of chocolate lying about after Easter". Article continues below Content cannot be displayed without consent Ingredients 300g butter 300g dark chocolate 130g plain flour 75g cocoa powder 160g leftover Easter chocolate cut into pieces 5 eggs 360g caster sugar Method Gather all your ingredients – and let's get started on the baking journey. First and foremost, preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Firstly, break your Easter egg into smaller pieces to resemble broken chocolate block chunks. Place the chocolate and butter in a bowl and microwave for two or three minutes, stirring frequently until the chocolate is fully melted. Whisk together the eggs and sugar until they reach a "very thick, like a milkshake" consistency, then gently fold in the melted chocolate and butter. Sift in the flour and cocoa, transfer the mixture to a lined baking dish or tray, and sprinkle any remaining chocolate on top. Bake for 28 to 33 minutes, "until the top is cracked and it no longer wobbles in the middle". Resist the urge to dive in immediately. Rebs advises waiting for the brownies to cool down completely before cutting them "cut into squares and enjoy". In the comments section, one person exclaimed: "Holy c**p these look good," tagging a friend to suggest making them together. Another humorously offered to "sample them for you", remarking on how delightful they appeared. Article continues below "They look delicious," praised another, acknowledging this as the perfect method for using up any leftover chocolate.
