Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Sugars

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • 6 Cadbury chocolate eggs, chopped into small chunks

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Beat the softened unsalted butter with both brown and granulated sugars until creamy and fluffy. Then add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough forms.
  3. Add Cadbury Chocolate Egg Pieces: Chop the Cadbury chocolate eggs into small chunks and gently fold them into the dough, being careful not to overmix so the chocolate pieces remain distinct and don’t melt completely.
  4. Shape and Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges turn golden but centers remain soft and gooey.
  5. Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to set perfectly and retain a melty center.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter to create a smooth dough and enhance texture.
  • Do not overmix the dough to avoid tough cookies; mix until ingredients just come together.
  • Chop Cadbury eggs evenly so each bite has melty chocolate chunks.
  • Watch the baking time carefully: bake until edges are set but centers look slightly underbaked for gooey cookies.
  • Cool cookies on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving to prevent breaking and maintain softness.
