The pictures are from the Smart  cookie but the recipe is from several sites.

Ingredients:

• 1 box Duncan Hines Blue Velvet cake mix
• 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, softened
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 cup Nestle Springtime chocolate chips
• 1 cup Cadbury mini eggs

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9×13 pan with nonstick cooking spray and line with parchment paper.
2. In a standing mixer, beat together cake mix, butter, and eggs on low speed until it starts to come together. Turn speed up to medium just until well-combined. Batter will be very thick.
3. Mix in chocolate chips on low speed until evenly distributed. Transfer mixture to prepared pan and use wax paper or parchment paper to pat down into an even layer, spreading dough out as close to the edges of the pans as you can.
4. Bake 35 minutes then pull pan from oven. Stick the Cadbury eggs into the top of the bars so they’re embedded. Return to oven for another 5-10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Let cool completely then cut into squares. Store in an air-tight container for up to 4 days.
