Ingredients Notes

This recipe calls for simple ingredients like butter, sugar, flour, and of course, Cadbury eggs. You can find Cadbury eggs at most grocery stores during the spring season. If Cadbury eggs aren’t available, feel free to substitute with your favorite chocolate candies. For those looking to reduce sugar, using a sugar substitute won’t compromise the flavor. Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.

Recipe Steps

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and ensure even baking.

Step 2

Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will take about 2-3 minutes using a hand mixer. The mixture should be pale in color.

Step 3

Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure thorough mixing.

Step 4

Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies.

Step 5

Gently fold in the Cadbury eggs, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough. Drop spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.

Storage Options

Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep them fresh for longer, consider freezing them. Place cooled cookies in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to three months. To enjoy, simply let them thaw at room temperature or reheat in a warm oven for a few minutes.

Variations & Substitutions

For a fun twist, try adding a dash of cinnamon or a tablespoon of espresso powder to enhance the chocolate flavor. You can also use different chocolates or candies if Cadbury eggs aren’t available. For those with dietary restrictions, substitute traditional ingredients with gluten-free flour and dairy-free butter alternatives.

Serving Suggestions

These cookies are perfect for Easter brunches, potlucks, or as an afternoon snack with a glass of milk or cup of tea. They also make a great gift when wrapped in a decorative tin for holidays or special occasions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use mini Cadbury eggs instead? Yes, mini Cadbury eggs work well and will distribute more evenly throughout the dough, providing small bursts of flavor in every bite.

Can I make the dough ahead of time? Absolutely! You can prepare the dough ahead and refrigerate it for up to 48 hours. This can actually enhance the flavor by allowing the ingredients to meld. Just be sure to bring the dough back to room temperature before baking.

What can I do if my cookies spread too much? If your cookies tend to spread, try chilling the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This helps solidify the fats, preventing excessive spreading and creating a thicker cookie.
