Easter is coming which means MINI EGGS!! I love mini eggs and defiantly over indulge on these at Easter.
I have been seeing lots of mini egg cookies on Instagram so wanted to jump on this trend with my own take on them.
I used a both mini eggs and the mini egg chocolate bar in these cookies because you can never have too many mini eggs.
I also added some white chocolate just add something different to these cookies. I just wanted to make these cookies as chocolatey as possible because cookies should be packed full of chocolate.
These cookies are super soft and chunky which in my opinion is how a good cookie should be. I would recommend using two baking trays because the cookies do spread.
These cookies are so yummy slightly warm when the chocolate is still gooey but be careful cause the chocolate could still be hot and burn your mouth.
These cookies will defiantly be apart of my Easter table and I might even stock pile mini eggs so I can make these cookies all year round.
I hope you all have a great Easter.

- 100 g Butter
- 100 g Light Brown Sugar

- 50 g White Chocolate* Chopped up

- Roll out golf ball size pieces of dough and pop onto the baking tray. Pat down a little to flatten and leave about a 2cm gap between each cookie as they’ll grow.
