Normally, I could quite easily sit and eat a whole bar of chocolate or a whole Easter egg, but for some reason, this year, I’m quite sick of the sight of chocolate and to be honest, I think my kids are too. This is a good opportunity to stash it away and use it in my day to day baking. Not that I make everything I bake with chocolate but here’s a few ideas for a special weekly or fortnightly treat. Even though the cheap Easter chocolate isn’t the greatest tasting. Using it in these recipes might be a way to boost the flavour into something a little more decadent.
Soft-centred Chocolate Easter Egg puddings
No Bake Chocolate Peppermint Slice
Oat Choc Chip Slice (with Olive Oil)
Cranberry Chocolate Chunk Scones
Peanut Butter Choc Chunk Cookie Cake

What a great collection of chocolate recipes! I still have a load of Easter eggs left over – I think some will definitely be going into these recipes!
Chocolate is my weakness but sheesh…I need to go cold turkey on the sugar for a couple of weeks!
We make fonue out of eggs some years, depending how many we have…we showed restraint this year. My Dh and DD also like to melt them inside croissants for a quick chocolate croissant.
Oops that should say fondue!

I'm like Tonia- I totally need a sugar hiatus after this weekend. Those bunnies are evil! 🙂
What a timely post Anne! I was just thinking this morning how many Easter eggs are still sitting in the cupboard…my youngest has no idea they're his and he doesn't need to know, so I'll be making use of them in some of these recipes for sure, thanks for the ideas!
And yes, I've been overwhelmed by chocolate too this year – I'm feeling it just thinking about it!

You know, chocolate and ice cream are both medicine! 😉
