# What You’ll Need:
→ Wet Ingredients
01 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
02 - 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
03 - 1 cup packed light brown sugar
04 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
05 - 2 large eggs
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Dry Ingredients
07 - 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
08 - 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
09 - 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
10 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Mix-Ins and Topping
11 - 1 cup Easter egg chocolate candies, plus extra for topping
12 - 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing an overhang for easy removal.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, peanut butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fully blended.
03 - Add eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture, whisking until thoroughly incorporated.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
05 - Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, mixing just until a cohesive dough forms.
06 - Gently fold Easter egg chocolate candies and semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough.
07 - Evenly spread the dough in the prepared baking pan. Press additional Easter egg candies on top for a decorative finish.
08 - Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set but retains a soft texture.
09 - Allow bars to cool completely in the pan. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out, then slice into individual bars.
