Cadbury Egg Easter Cookies
This Cadbury Mini Egg Easter Cookies recipe is the combination of soft and chewy cookie dough with chunks of rich and creamy Cadbury Egg chocolate. The recipe creates a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
Ingredients
- ⅞ cup butter (14 Tablespoons) I used salted, at room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 12 ounce cadbury mini eggs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Using an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on high until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until the mixture is well combined and has lightened slightly in color, about 1 minute. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low just until well combined. Stir in the Cadbury Mini Eggs.
- Place dough in mounds of about 2 Tablespoons on a baking sheet, about 12 per sheet. Bake at 350° F for 10 minutes. For the softest and chewiest cookies, remove from oven as soon as the edges are set and the tops are matte, then allow to cool on the baking sheet 5-10 minutes before removing. For a slightly dry, slightly crisp cookie, bake until the edges turn golden.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 8-10 seconds for that fresh warm softness.
- Store pre-made dough balls or baked cookies in the freezer for up to 2 months. To bake frozen dough, allow to come to room temperature then bake as normal.
- For cookies with more visible Cadbury Eggs: Stir in ⅔ of the mini eggs, then form dough balls. After forming dough balls, press the remaining mini eggs into the tops of the dough. This will create cookies where the mini eggs are more prominent and visible. Bake normally.
- Have fun and experiment with other types of Easter candy! Make them your own for something scrumptious.
- Be careful not to over bake for the softest and chewiest results.
