Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free all purpose flour blend (144g)
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch (16g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted (113g))
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed (200g))
  • 1 large egg (room temperature (50g))
  • 1 egg yolk (room temperature (18g))
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup gluten-free mini chocolate eggs (divided (190g))

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325F (180C). Line a 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, add the gluten-free flour blend, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter and brown sugar. Mix until combined.
  • Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  • Add in the dry ingredients, mixing until no more streaks of gluten-free flour remain.
  • Roughly chop ¾ cup of the mini chocolate eggs into small pieces. Reserve the remaining ¼ cup of mini chocolate eggs whole for later.
  • Add the roughly chopped mini eggs to the batter and stir until combined.
  • Pour the blondie batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread with a spatula or knife to smooth out the top. Top with the reserved ¼ cup of whole mini chocolate eggs.
  • Bake at 325F for 25-29 minutes, until the edges are browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. If it comes out with dry crumbs, the blondies are over baked. If it comes out with wet batter, they need more time to bake.
  • Let the blondies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before removing to a cutting board to slice into squares.

Notes

  • I used Cadbury mini chocolate eggs for this recipe, which are not labeled gluten-free, but have no gluten-containing ingredients in them. Cadbury has confirmed on their website that their mini eggs are made in a manufacturing facility that contains wheat but not on the same lines as wheat. If this makes you uncomfortable, you can use another gluten-free chocolate candy in its place.
