  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  2. Prep a 9×13-inch baking pan by greasing it lightly or lining with parchment paper.
  3. Cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add the vanilla extract.

  6. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gradually to avoid mess.

  9. Decorate the top with assorted Easter candies and gently push them into the batter.
  10. Bake for about 22-25 minutes, until lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

For a twist, try adding nuts, dried fruits, or coconut to the batter. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
