How to Make Cadbury Egg Cookies

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place the Cadbury Mini Eggs inside a Ziploc bag. Using a rolling pin, break the candies into smaller pieces. Keep some pieces larger by only breaking in half. Set aside.
• In medium size bowl, whisk together 3 1/4 cups flour, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp baking soda. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup softened butter, 1 cup brown sugar, and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy and creamy. Beat in 2 eggs and 1 tbsp vanilla.
• Beat the dry ingredients into the wet until cookie dough forms. Fold in 1 cup chocolate chips and all but 1/2 cup crushed Cadbury Mini Eggs. Mix gently until just combined.
• Place 1 1/2 tbsp size scoops of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving room between the cookies to spread.
• Bake for 10 minutes.
• Press in additional chocolate chips and crushed Cadbury Mini Eggs into the tops of the cookies right after removing from the oven.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I make Cadbury Egg Cookies soft & chewy?

The key is not overbaking. Remove the cookies when the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underdone. They will continue to set as they cool.

Why did my cookies turn out hard?

Hard cookies are usually caused by overbaking, too much flour, or overmixing the dough. Measuring flour correctly and baking just until done helps keep cookies tender,

Can I use salted butter instead of unsalted?

Yes. If using salted butter, omit any added salt in the recipe.

Can I freeze Cadbury Egg Cookies?

Absolutely! Store in a freezer safe bag or container for up to 3 months.
