Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
  2. Melt 1 cup of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, then stir in granulated sugar until smooth, followed by the eggs and vanilla extract.
  3. Whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 cup of flour, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl.
  4. Fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined, then pour into the prepared pan and press Mini Eggs on top.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs; cool for at least 10 minutes.
  6. Transfer brownies to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into cubes.
  7. In a mixing bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla until soft peaks form.
  8. Layer brownie cubes and whipped cream in clear glasses, starting and finishing with whipped cream, and top with Mini Eggs.
  9. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to meld flavors.
