Chocolate Cadbury Egg Cookies

What’s better than a bag of Cadbury Mini Eggs?

(Apparently not much, because I can eat an entire bag all by myself)

Chocolate Cadbury Egg Cookies.

I discovered these scrumptious little cookies last year in Kendra Webster’s cookbook. I’ve been anxiously awaiting Easter, just so I could make them again.

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Shortening
1/2 Cup Butter
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup Brown Sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups flour
6 TBS cocoa powder
1 - 10 oz bag Cadbury Mini Eggs
Mix together: shortening, butter, sugar and brown sugar. Then add 2 eggs, 1 at a time. Mix together then add vanilla. In a separate bowl mix: baking powder, soda, salt, flour, and cocoa powder. After mixed well, add to creamed mixture. Smash the bag of Cadbury Mini Eggs and stir into batter. (Save some eggs to make sure each cookie gets a whole egg in it). You may even want to buy extra mini eggs! Drop by spoonful on a cookie sheet. Bake @ 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

Now get baking! You won't regret it, I promise.

***The recipe for the chocolate cookie is a good one, I’ve replaced the Cadbury Eggs with white chocolate chips and they were AMAZING!
