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.
