Easter Damper Surprise
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
3 cups of self-raising flour
1/4 tsp of salt
3 tbsp of softened butter
250ml of milk
150g of Caramilk chocolate chips
150g of mini milk Easter eggs (and a couple extra for decoration at the end)
Peeps Marshmallows (alternatively, use regular pink and white marshmallows)
1. Mix the flour with the salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and rub it into the flour with the tips of your fingers, until it becomes a fine crumb.
2. Stir in the milk with a butter knife to make a soft dough.
3. Put the dough onto a floured surface and knead into a rough ball shape – here is where it becomes different from a normal damper.
4. Before making it into its final smooth ball shape, open up the damper, and fill the centre with your Caramilk chips, milk chocolate chips, and marshmallows. Make sure to get it as centred as possible so it does not leak out as it cooks, don't overstuff.
5. Once you have stuffed your damper, smooth it all out into a nice damper shape, pop onto a lined baking sheet and make a light cross on top for decoration. You can also brush the top lightly with milk.
6. Cook at 190°C for 30 minutes, or until golden.
7. Once cooked – decorate with Peeps and little mini Easter Eggs to give it that extra Easter feel.
