Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325° for dark or nonstick pan). Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with shortening or cooking spray.
- Make brownie mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Bake 24 to 26 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely.
- In a small saucepan, heat cream, over medium heat, to almost boiling. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate. Stir 3 to 5 minutes or until the chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
- Pour chocolate mixture evenly over cooled brownies, using small spatula to spread it evenly over top. Dot top of the brownies with pastel candy coated eggs, placing them at even intervals so one is on each brownie. Use 12 for larger brownies, 24 for smaller ones.
- Refrigerate the brownies for 30 minutes. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows for large brownies or 6 rows by 4 rows for 24 brownies.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Butter and flour a 9 x 9-inch baking pan. Set aside. In a double boiler, melt chocolate and butter, stirring until smooth. Stir in vanilla and let cool slightly. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar on medium high speed until thick and creamy, and sugar is dissolved, about 10 minutes. Gently stir in melted chocolate. Stir salt into flour and fold gently into chocolate mixture. Do not over mix. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread to smooth. Bake 20 minutes, then cover with foil. Bake additional 8 to 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted 1 inch from the center comes out clean.
- While the brownies are baking, prepare the frosting. Melt butter and stir in cocoa powder. Mix until well blended. Add warm water and vanilla and whisk in confectioner's sugar, a little at a time, until frosting is smooth and spreadable, but not too thick.
- Remove brownies from oven and let cool slightly in pan. Spread frosting over warm brownies for a hot fudge sauce effect or spread on cooled brownies and refrigerate until firm for brownies that will be served later or packed for travel.

DECADENT CHOCOLATE BROWNIES
A brownie for chocolate lovers, this will really hit the spot when you're craving something "really chocolatey". This is a true brownie - not a cake brownie and not fudge. I do not recommend subbing out any of the dairy in this dessert, so keep that in mind. It will stay soft for days and has that perfect brownie texture. Side note: the batter will be thicker than you'd expect! That's OK!

Steps:
- Preheat oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 177 Celsius.).
- In a large mixing bowl, add egg and butter. Whisk until blended smoothly.
- Whisk in white sugar, then add vanilla and baking powder.
- Add cocoa powder, blend thoroughly.
- Mix in flour (SLOWLY) and and then sour cream. Batter will be THICK! This is okay. If you find the batter is not thick or is runny, add 1/4 cup more flour. If you find the batter is getting too thick too fast, don't add the full cup. (If you feel the batter is far too thick you can always add more sour cream and/or some milk!).
- Fold in chocolate pieces. I don't use baking chocolate - I use milk chocolate bars with almonds. Use your favorite brand.
- Grease a 9" round or square baking tin. Pour brownie mix in, smoothing out with your spatula gently until it reaches the sides.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until you can stick a toothpick in and it comes out clean. For me with a gas oven, that's 25 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a rich and decadent flavor.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this will result in a tough brownie.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting and serving.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For a special treat, top the brownies with chocolate ganache, whipped cream, or ice cream.
Conclusion:
These Decadent Dark Chocolate Easter Brownies are the perfect way to celebrate the holiday. They are rich, fudgy, and packed with chocolate flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make these brownies perfectly every time. So, preheat your oven, gather your ingredients, and let's get baking!
