Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cover the baking tray with parchment paper and set it aside until ready to use
Step 2: Place the Cadbury mini eggs inside a resealable plastic bag. Using a rolling pin, break the candy into smaller pieces. Save some of the larger pieces by breaking them in half only. Set it aside — Tip: Save some larger pieces by dividing them in half just for better crunch (reserve 1/2 cup of mashed eggs to use soon)
Step 3: Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda together in a medium bowl. Then set it aside.
Step 4: Beat the brown sugar, softened butter, and sugar in a large bowl until the mixture is creamy and light. Then add eggs and vanilla and mix well.
Step 5: Add the dry ingredients to the liquid ingredients and mix until the cookie dough is formed. Add the chocolate chips and all of the beaten eggs except the 1/2 cup you reserved. Gently mix the ingredients until combined.
Step 6:Place 1 1/2 tablespoon of cookie dough on the prepared baking tray. Make sure to leave space between the cookies so they can spread.
Step 7: Bake for 10 minutes.
Step 8: Press additional chocolate chips and remaining crushed eggs onto the surface of the cookies immediately after removing them from the oven (this gives them a perfect baked-like appearance)
