Cadbury Just Launched a Mini Eggs Cookbook

05/03/2021 by Gemma Yates

While we’ll never say no to a box of Tony’s Chocolonely eggs or a Maltesers bunny, Mini Eggs will forever be the OG Easter chocolate treat. Well, we say Easter – in reality those sunshine yellow bags of pastel-shelled joy have been making their way into our weekly shopping trolleys since January. #lockdown.

Last year, Cadbury’s delighted die-hard Creme Egg fans with The Creme Egg Cookbook, and they’ve just launched the Mini Egg equivalent. From a four-ingredient rocky road (more on that later) and vanilla cheesecake to bunny cupcakes and blondies, the Mini Eggs Cookbook is the perfect excuse to use up any leftover eggs (LOL, sure), get creative in the kitchen with the kids this Easter or add something other than banana bread to your baking repertoire.

So, back to those rocky roads. Combining a mouth-watering quartet of Mini Eggs, digestive biscuits, Dairy Milk and marshmallows, they take just 15 minutes to make. And about 15 seconds to demolish. Here’s how:

Mini Eggs Rocky Road Recipe

Ingredients:

400g Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate, broken into squares

150g digestive biscuits

50g mini marshmallows

90g Cadbury Mini Eggs 

Method:

1. Line a 30 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment.

2. Put the chocolate squares in a large glass bowl and microwave them for 20–30 seconds. Take out the bowl and stir the chocolate, then repeat until it is all melted. Alternatively, place the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water until the chocolate has melted.

3. Put the digestive biscuits into a sealable plastic bag and bash them with a rolling pin until you have a mixture of different-sized pieces. You want some quite big crunchy pieces – not just crumbs.

4. Stir the crushed biscuits and marshmallows into the melted chocolate until everything is well combined and coated.

5. Transfer the mixture to the lined tin, pushing it into the corners and levelling the top. Push in the Cadbury Mini Eggs, distributing them evenly, and press them down with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

6. Chill the mixture in the fridge for 2–3 hours (or overnight) until it is set. Cut it into 24 squares and store them in an airtight container in the fridge.

Recipe from Cadbury Mini Egg Cookbook by Cadbury, (£9.99). Available at Waterstones, Amazon and good book retailers nationwide

April is #caesareanawarenessmonth and with three c April is #caesareanawarenessmonth and with three c-sections between us (I’ve had one, Hannah two) we thought we’d share the tips that made our recoveries slightly easier, from how to get in and out of bed to massaging your scar - icky but so, so important. There’s also some expert advice from the brilliant @clarebournephysio in there too. Remember, a c-section is major surgery and has a huge effect both physically and emotionally - especially if it wasn’t the birth you’d hoped for - so be kind to yourself, process the emotions and honour what your body has been through ❤️ Link in bio to read.
Dreamy sunlight and daffs to brighten up Monday, b Dreamy sunlight and daffs to brighten up Monday, because this snow/sleet/-1 degrees combo is really not doing it for me this morning. NGL, I’m feeling some serious overwhelm and ALL of the emotions today - think it’s a mix of lockdown restrictions easing (anyone else just not sure they’re ready yet?!) and my last week of training clients before maternity leave starts. Oh, and probably a bit of a sugar comedown from my insane baby shower cake yesterday. Trying to lean into the feelings and remind myself that there is no rush and I can navigate the return to real life on my own terms - as can you. In the meantime, coffee - and regular glances at this smile-inducing snap - are helping. We’ve got this. Gemma 💚💛🧡
