- 1 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar for a crisp edge
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar for a chewy center
- 2 large eggs room temperature for better mixing
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract for a warm flavor
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour leveled carefully
- 1 teaspoon baking soda to help the cookies rise
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt to balance the sweet chocolate
- 1 1/2 cups Cadbury Mini Eggs roughly crushed into pieces
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips optional for extra chocolate
Cream the Butter
Beat the softened butter, white sugar, and light brown sugar together in your large bowl. Mix for three minutes until the texture is very light, fluffy, and a pale yellow color.
Whisk Dry Ingredients
In your medium bowl, stir the flour, baking soda, and fine salt together. This prevents any large lumps of soda from ending up in a single bite of your sweet cookie.
- Chill the dough for thirty minutes if you want thicker, less spread-out cookies.
- Press a few whole Cadbury eggs on top of the dough balls for a prettier look.
- Add a half-cup of white chocolate chips to complement the milk chocolate eggs.
- Sprinkle a tiny bit of flaky sea salt on top for a gourmet sweet-salty flavor.
- Use a mix of dark chocolate and milk chocolate eggs for a richer taste profile.
- Make sure your butter is soft but not melted to prevent the cookies from spreading.
