Ingredients You’ll Need for Easter Deviled Brownies

One of the best things about these Easter Deviled Brownies is how simple the ingredient list is. You’re starting with a boxed brownie mix, which makes this recipe incredibly approachable while still delivering rich, fudgy flavor.

  • 1 box (18–19 oz) fudgy brownie mix: A classic boxed brownie mix keeps this recipe quick and easy. I recommend a fudgy-style mix so the brownies stay dense and hold their egg shape beautifully.
  • Eggs, oil, and water (as directed on the box) : Use whatever your specific brownie mix calls for. These ingredients create that moist, chewy brownie texture we all love.
  • 1 cup vanilla frosting: Store-bought vanilla frosting works perfectly here and keeps this Easter dessert low-effort. For a more realistic “deviled egg yolk” look, you can tint the frosting a soft yellow with food coloring.
  • 1–2 teaspoons festive sprinkles: Give the cutest finishing touch. Gold sanding sugar also works for a slightly more elegant look.
  • Equipment: Silicone Egg Mold

How to Make Easter Deviled Brownies

Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Batter

Preheat your oven according to the brownie mix instructions. Prepare the brownie batter exactly as directed on the box.

Stir until smooth but do not overmix.

Step 2: Fill the Egg Silicone Mold

Lightly spray your egg-shaped silicone mold with nonstick spray. This helps the brownies release cleanly after baking.

Fill each cavity about ¾ full. Avoid overfilling, as brownies will rise slightly.

Step 3: Bake

Bake according to package instructions. Because silicone molds can bake slightly faster, start checking a few minutes early. Insert a toothpick — it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.

Step 4: Create the “Deviled Egg” Cavity

Immediately after removing the brownies from the oven — while they are still warm — use the back of a tablespoon to gently press a small cavity into the center of each egg.

Do not press all the way through. You just want enough room to pipe frosting later.

This step is much easier while the brownies are warm and soft.

Allow the brownies to cool completely before adding frosting.

Step 5: Pipe the Frosting

Transfer vanilla frosting into a piping bag fitted with a star tip (or use a zip-top bag with the corner cut off).

Pipe frosting into the cavity to resemble the yolk of a deviled egg.

Step 6: Add Sprinkles

Top with any festive sprinkles to mimic paprika.
