Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup Cadbury Mini Eggs, crushed + extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep

    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Make the Cookie Dough

    • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
    • Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed Mini Eggs.
  3. Shape the Cookies

    • Scoop about 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie and roll into balls.
    • Place on the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
    • Press a few extra Mini Eggs on top of each dough ball for a festive look.
  4. Bake

    • Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the center is still soft.
    • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Serving & Storage

  • Serve warm for gooey chocolate goodness!
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes


  • For extra thick cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Use a rolling pin or mallet to gently crush the Mini Eggs—leave some big chunks for crunch!
  • Swap chocolate chips for white chocolate chips for a sweeter twist.
